The U20 World Cup will kick off on Saturday, September 27 in Chile, featuring 24 teams divided into 6 groups.

Africa will be represented by four nations: South Africa, Morocco, Egypt, and Nigeria.

Since Ghana's triumph in 2009, the African continent has not claimed the trophy in this tournament, now in its 24th edition.

To recap, only three players have managed the remarkable feat of winning the tournament twice.

Sergio Agüero

The former Manchester City striker was a key architect of Argentina's back-to-back titles in 2005 and 2007.

João Pinto

The ex-Benfica forward played a starring role in Portugal's golden run at the U20 World Cup in 1989 and 1991.

Fernando Brassard

The former Benfica goalkeeper was also instrumental in Portugal's double triumph in 1989 and 1991.
