Cameroon legend Roger Milla is confident in-form striker Vincent Aboubakar could become one of Africa's greatest ever players.
Aboubakar has scored an incredible six goals in five games at the ongoing 2021 Africa Cup of Nations - which is the best tally by any player since 1998 - when Benni McCarthy (South Africa) and Hossam Hassan (Egypt) bagged seven apiece.
The 30-year-old netted Cameroon's winner against Egypt in the 2017 final and will lead the Indomitable Lions into Thursday's semi-final against the North Africans.
"Aboubakar could be one of the greatest African footballers," Milla told BBC Sport Africa.
"Unfortunately, two years ago he suffered a very serious injury which sidelined him for four months.
"I'm very happy for him because he came into Afcon in good form. When he's playing, it's as if the whole country wants to make up for lost time and they want him to win.
"I hope he gets a goal against Egypt - and why not in the final?"
The all-time top goalscorer at a single AFCON is Mulamba Ndaye, who scored nine goals for champions Zaire (now Democratic Republic of the Congo) in 1974.
