He achieved significant success, particularly with Juventus, where he won numerous titles.

A video shared on social media showcased Asamoah, playing for Juventus at the time, exhibiting exceptional skills as he scored one of the finest goals of his career against Fiorentina.

“Kwadwo Asamoah has always been a baller. Look at the technique,” wrote sports journalist, Owuraku Ampofo, after sharing the video on Twitter.

Gyan spent three years in the Serie A, where he played for Udinese and Modena, while Asamoah played for Udinese, Juventus, Inter Milan, and Cagliari.

The latter announced his retirement from the game last year.

Meanwhile, Gyan is yet to officially hang up his boots despite last playing a competitive game in 2021.

GFA chief lauds Asamoah Gyan

Earlier, Sports Brief reported on Ghana Football Association second-in-command, Alex Asante describing Gyan as the most committed player to ever feature for the national team.

The legendary Ghanaian played for his country’s national team for almost two decades, starting out as a teenager and working his way up to becoming captain of the Black Stars.

Although Gyan could not win major silverware for his country, he played a pivotal role in Ghana’s World Cup games and remains the continent’s leading scorer at the tournament.

Gyan explains his GPL return

Legendary Ghanaian footballer, Gyan has explained his decision to play in the domestic top flight league was backed by his quest to make an impact in his home country.

Injuries plagued the former Black Stars captain’s brief spell at Ghana Premier League side, Legon Cities and he has since not played competitively after leaving the club in 2021.
