After scooping the goal-king award, Black Satellites forward Jerry Afriyie was also named the Most Valuable Player of the just-ended WAFU Zone B U-20 Championship, held in Lomé, Togo.
After both qualifying for the next CAF U-20 Cup of Nations, both Ghana and Nigeria squared off in the final last Wednesday night with the Flying Eagles winning by 2-1 to emerge champions.
The Thoughts FC forward had a very descent tournament having netted five goals and was by far Ghana's best performer at the competition
He struck twice against Benin in the opening game and added his three goals subsequently against hosts Togo, Cote D'Ivoire in the semi final before wrapping up with another in the final against eventual champions Nigeria.
He was named the Goal-King and topped up with Overall Best Player awards after the tourney and hasn't been questioned as many that monitored the competition know very well he deserves all those accolades.
Jerry, has been outstanding and one that will be remembered with his stellar spell since breaking into the Ghana U-20 having netted thrice also in the 13th African Games held in March this year including the winning goal against Uganda in the final to help the team seal gold.
The Black Satellites after finishing as runners up of the competition have now qualified to the 2025 Africa U-20 Cup of Nations alongside champions Nigeria.
