I’ll go with Didier Drogba 
Following his £24m transfer from Marseille in the summer of 2004, the Ivorian striker initially faced challenges adjusting, but eventually earned recognition as one of Chelsea’s greatest players during his first spell at the club.
Drogba, who scored 157 goals in 341 matches, played a pivotal role as Chelsea clinched their inaugural Champions League trophy in 2012 by defeating Bayern Munich. Returning to west London for the 2014/15 season, he secured his fourth Premier League title along with four FA Cups and three League Cups.
Drogba’s impact transcended mere statistics; he is remembered as a defining center-forward in Premier League history, blending power and finesse to dominate the pitch and bolster midfield superiority single-handedly.
For me am taking Mohammed sallah
One of the greatest Africans to have ever played this lovely game. The winger has continuously proven himself after being let go by Chelsea on a number of loan stints and subsequently moving permanently to AS Roma. He has won both the Premier League and the Champions League since his arrival. Along with scoring 32 goals in 2017–18 and 22 goals in 2018–19, he also won the Golden Boot twice. Additionally, Salah has received three Professional Footballers Association (PFA) award.
The greatest African player in Premier League history is Mohamed Salah (Egypt), followed by Didier Drogba (Ivory Coast), Yaya Toure (Ivory Coast), and Sadio Mane (Senegal).
Other notable African players in the Premier League include:
Didier Drogba and Mohamed Salah are two of the greatest African players in Premier League history, each with their own unique achievements.
Didier Drogba: Chelsea (2004-2012), (2014-15)
Mohamed Salah: Liverpool (2017-Present)
It is difficult to compare the two players as they played in different eras and positions. While Salah has surpassed Drogba in Premier League goalscoring, Drogba has more titles won with Chelsea and a longer career in the Premier League.
Samuel Eto is the Greatest African Player ever in my opinion.
Samuel Eto’o has an impressive list of achievements, including:
These achievements highlight Eto’o’s exceptional skill and success in both domestic and international football.
