Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure was named CAF African Footballer of the Year on Thursday.
The Ivory Coast international claimed the award for the third successive year, beating off competition from Jon Obi Mikel and Didier Drogba.
Only Samuel Eto'o has achieved the same feat, between 2003 and 2005, as Toure, who was also the only African player named on the 23-man shortlist for the Fifa World Player of the Year award.
Toure is enjoying his most prolific season to date at the Etihad Stadium, having already netted 13 goals this season.
