2 Achraf Hakimi Afrika Cup — 2. Achraf Hakimi – 85 OVR – RB – Paris Saint-Germain/Morocco

There is also no getting past the full-back from the designated championship contender. | © EA Sports/Faris Delalic

3 Koulibaly Afrika Cup — 3. Kalidou Koulibaly – 86 OVR – CB – SSC Napoli/Senegal

Koulibaly has become one of the best central defenders in the world at Napoli. | © EA Sports/Faris Delalic

4 Tapsoba Afrika Cup — 4. Edmond Tapsoba – 81 OVR – CB – Bayer Leverkusen/Burkina Faso

Well, Burkina Faso's chances of winning a title are tiny. But Tapsoba still makes it into this squad. | © EA Sports/Faris Delalic

5 Bensebaini Afrika Cup — 5. Ramy Bensebaini – 79 OVR – LB – Borussia Mönchengladbach/Algeria

We continue with Bundesliga players. The left-back is always highly motivated. | © EA Sports/Faris Delalic

6 Ndidi Afrika cup — 6. Wilfred Ndidi – 85 OVR – CDM – Leicester/Nigeria

Simply a beast in defense midfield. Ndidi is the only man from Nigeria in this selection. | © EA Sports/Faris Delalic

7 Partey Afrika Cup — 7. Thomas Partey – 84 OVR – CM – Arsenal/Ghana

As an all-rounder, he must be in this team, naturally. The Gunners will really miss Partey over the next weeks. | © EA Sports/Faris Delalic

8 Kessie Afrika Cup — 8. Franck Kessié – 84 OVR – CM – AC Milan/Ivory Coast

Kessié completes the row of three in midfield. This team already looks good, but real superstars are still waiting up front. | © EA Sports/Faris Delalic

11 Aubameyang Afrika Cup — 9. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang – 84 OVR – ST – Arsenal/Gabon

It is unlikely that Gabon will ever win anything. Aubameyang struggles in London since his time there is coming to an end. But he will still find a good club, won't he? In any case, he can present himself at the Africa Cup. | © EA Sports/Faris Delalic

9 Mane Africa Cup — 10. Sadio Mané – 89 OVR – LW – Liverpool/Senegal

One of the **best wingers in the world.** Senegal has a really awesome squad! | © EA Sports/Faris Delalic

10 Salah Afrika Cup — 11. Mohamed Salah – 90 OVR – RW – Liverpool/Egypt

Of course, the Egyptian King would like to become the African King. Let's see what **high-flyer Salah** can do with Egypt. | © EA Sports/Faris Delalic
