    African footballers

    Just seeing that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has won the African footballer of the year award, made me think of the African footballers that played for the Hibs.

    Which African footballers have played for Hibs and who was the best.

    Jimmy Boco.
    Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.

    Yes I know that. What I didn't know until now was that T&T is not in Africa. I have completely lost control of the situation here. Soz.

    Agathe was from La Réunion was he not? I suppose that's near enough Africa 🤔


    Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
