It's only the group stage of the 2025 CAF African Schools Football Championship (ASFC), but one player is already hitting global status.
Ghana's John Andor has made the headlines in three games he has featured for his country at this year's tournament being played at the University of Ghana Stadium.
With two goals and one assist to his name, Andor has contributed directly to 50% of the Black Comets' goals in the competition and has rightfully earned the plaudits of many who have seen him play in the competition.
The youngster says his game is modelled around Brazilian star Neymar.
"I look up to Neymar, but I always watch videos of [Mohammed] Kudus and Lucho (Luiz Diaz)," he told the media after the final group game.
"But I will say I idolise Neymar more."
The youngster is not buying pressure for himself, but he knows the path he is treading is one that would require dedication, commitment and consistency.
Out of his three appearances, two of them have been starts with one substitute appearance (vs. Algeria).
He will be looking to come to the party once again when Ghana take on defending champions, Tanzania, in the semifinal stage of the competition scheduled for Friday, April 25.
