Top Ghanaian musician, Kwabena Kwabena says that former Black Stars captain, Asamoah Gyan, remains his favourite footballer of all time.

Gyan retired from football in June 2023 after a career spanning almost two decades, in which he led Ghana to three FIFA World Cups.

Kwabena Kwabena, known in real life as George Kwabena Adu, insists that Gyan's career had a huge impact on him as a person and if he had chosen to play football, he would have picked the former Sunderland player as his idol.

"My favourite footballer of all-time in Ghana," he told E Vibes, as quoted by ghanasoccernet.com. "If I was not doing music actively, maybe I would be playing footballer and this chap here would have been my idol," he added.

"Coming from 2006 to the 2010 World Cup and what he did in both tournaments, I will say it is a major milestone which it will take decades for any player to arise and reach such a feat. If we've not sat down to study what he did critically as a people, because of what he did for Ghana in both tournaments. For me, he will forever remain my biggest Ghanaian footballing idol."

Gyan holds the record as Ghana's all-time top scorer with 51 goals in 109 international appearances, as reported by Transfermarkt.

The ex-Sunderland attacker is also Africa's top scorer at the World Cup, with six goals from three tournaments.
