British newspaper Guardian has published on its electronic edition a list of the top 100 footballers in the world for the year ended 2013.

Ranked in the 97th position is Super Eagles and Fenerbahce striker Emmanuel Emenike, who scored four goals for the Nigeria at the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations. Here’s the reason The Guardian gave for picking him

Emenike staked an early claim as one of Africa’s most influential players when his exploits propelled Nigeria towards a long overdue success in the Cup of Nations. Africa’s most populous nation had not won it for almost two decades, and his role in such an encouraging triumph was vital. Emenike was prolific, consistent and finished as the competition’s top scorer. It is the determination and pace of his runs that makes the difference to Nigeria’s counter-attacking strength

This season, Emmanuel Emenike has netted 6 goals in 14 Super Lig matches for his Fernerbahce side

Other Africans on the list include Manchester City and Ivorian midfielder Yaya Toure (19), Borrusia Dortmund and Gabonese forward Pierre Emerick Aubameyang (79) and Camerounian skipper and Chelsea forward Samuel Eto’o (83)
