Newly crowned AFC Player of the Year Akram Afif has set his sights on breaking new ground after joining a select group of players who have won the continent's top individual award two times.
Afif joined Japan's Hidetoshi Nakata and Server Djeparov of Uzbekistan as the only players to win the Asian Football Confederation's top accolade twice, and the Qatari is now determined to complete a hat trick of successes.
"I want to make history, I want to make something big for my life," Afif, who first won the award in 2019, said after collecting the trophy at a gala ceremony in Seoul.
