Brahim Diaz, the Moroccan international, continues to impress at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations. With five goals to his name, he has solidified his position as the tournament’s top scorer and is in a strong position to claim the Golden Shoe as the grand final approaches.

Thanks to his decisive performances, Diaz is currently ahead of his main rivals, including Victor Osimhen (Nigeria) and Mohamed Salah (Egypt), who each have four goals. Further behind is a group of players, including Ayoub El Kaabi and Riyad Mahrez, trailing with three goals.

The Morocco–Senegal final will provide one last chance for his competitors to catch up; however, the Lions of the Atlas forward enjoys a comfortable lead that could enable him to finish the tournament atop the scoring charts.

If Brahim Diaz finds the back of the net once again in the decisive match, he would almost certainly secure his individual triumph while helping Morocco aim for another continental title.
