Winners – France Football award (1970–1994)

Winners – France Football award (1970–1994)

Roger Milla, two time winner of the award given by France Football.

The award by France Football magazine was awarded to the best African footballer between 1970 and 1994. The award was discontinued in 1995 after the European Footballer of the Year (Ballon d'or) was opened to players of non-European nationality, the award being given to George Weah that year. It had already been replaced by an official award given out by the Confederation of African Football since 1992.
