Samuel Inkoom reveals what makes Asamoah Gyan phenomenal
2 min readFormer Ghana right-back Samuel Inkoom has expressed his admiration for Asamoah Gyan and has likened him to former World best player George Weah.
According to him, Gyan is a complete striker who possesses great techniques in executing his duties as a striker.
The duo played together for the Black Stars of Ghana during the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, where Ghana got elimination at the quarter-finals stage by Uruguay.
“I don’t know how to describe him,” Inkoom told Goal. “Gyan is one of the strikers who has great timing, he smells – he’s always smelling, like George Weah, he can smell where the ball will come, and he’s very good at finishing.
“As a striker he has everything; he has the skill, he can pass, he can dribble, he has good technique, he’s very good in the air,” the full-back continued. “He has everything.”

“For me, he’s phenomenal,” Inkoom continued. “He’s the African player who has the most goals at the World Cup – six – so Gyan always wants to prove a point and to die for his country.
“Gyan is very talented striker, very gifted.”
Gyan had some great times during the 2010 World Cup scoring three goals before Ghana was eliminated from the Mundial.
Before the 2010 World Cup, Gyan had netted the first of his six goals at the tournament in the 2006 edition in Germany, when he bagged the opener for the Black Stars in their 2-0 victory over the Czech Republic.
