Asamoah Gyan’s all-star XI could win an Afcon title

Asamoah Gyan’s all-star XI is undoubtedly one that has elements of a quality-studded team.

Perhaps, Ghana’s all-time top scorer might have envisaged an Africa Cup of Nations title had his stars-filled squad made an appearance in the national team’s recent continental campaigns.

With his career gradually in its closing moments, the 34-year-old forward has been reminiscing on past events in his football in an interview with Pulse.

In Gyan’s all-star XI, three-time African Footballer of the Year Abedi Pele Ayew takes his spot in midfield as the playmaker.

Richard Kingson, who featured for Ghana in two World Cups and several other Africa Cup of Nations, is the shot-stopper.

The former Sunderland striker chose John Paintsil on the right full-back and Hans Adu Sarpei on the left-full back. In central defence, Samuel Osei Kuffour and John Mensah’s partnership is a solid one for the general captain.

Gyan played a four-man midfield of Michael Essien, Stephen Appiah, Laryea Kingston, and Sulley Muntari.

Abedi Pele was utilized as the play-maker of the team to support Gyan as the arrowhead.
