Botola Pro contenders Raja Casablanca are competing strong on multiple fronts, tailing rivals Wydad by a slim margin in Morocco’s top division and now about to embark on their CAF Confederation Cup semifinal against Egypt’s Pyramids FC. A big reason for their success this season has been Congolese striker Ben Malango, who is enjoying a career season at club level and breaking into the national team setup for the Leopards of the Democratic Republic of Congo national side. With an amazing 18 goals in 27 appearances across all competitions for Raja and 9 goals over his last 10 matches for the club, Malango is indisputably the most in-form striker in African club football.
Le 360° Sport profiles the Congolese striker, describing his success as the result of manager Lassad Chebbi finding the perfect system for Malango to play off playmakers like Soufiane Rahimi and Abdelilah Hafidi. Malango’s ability to be mobile and physical allows his fellow attackers to make runs off him as well as locate him making runs with precision passing.
