Brahimi, 24, is the first ever Algerian to win the award, and the Porto winger revealed his delight at winning the award.
“It’s a big honour for me to receive this wonderful trophy. I owe it to my country, Algeria, and to all the people who voted for me.” the Porto winger told BBC Sport.
“It’s also a trophy for the whole of Africa, because it rewards an African player. So I am really very happy.
“This trophy is going to give me more strength, more desire to work, to get better, to learn so that I can keep having great performances.”
