Asamoah Gyan holds the record as Ghana's leading scorer with 51 goals, and has since established himself in the folklore of Ghana football.

"He is one of the deadliest strikers I have seen and a good chap," Addo told Tv3 Sports. "For me he is the best Ghana football has ever seen trust me," he added.

The ex-Sunderland forward has been inactive since picking up an injury whiles playing in the Indian Super League, but Gyan is not ready to hang his boots at 34.
