Interesting. How about his contribution to the black stars
He got injured just before the AFCON of 1978. Opoku Afriyie took his place in the tea, Dan Owusu never regained his old form after that. He later played briefly for Kotoko but by then the spark was gone
I wonder whether the GFA really understand the dynamics of current foot. Now coaching staff is departmental, we have goal keepers coach, defenders coach, midfielders coach and attackers coach who are managed by the head coach ...

A real legend.
I think he played for Kotoko also
Played alongside Black stars captain Kwasi Owusu. Great player !!
I think they are related by blood. 2 awesome footballers!
no, they were not.
Another goal getter for Ghana
In fact, you can't compare this man's coaching powess to any of our current coaches.
I can recall as young man, how this man rekindled the careers of Kwaku Manu, A name Kobo, George Arthur, Sarah Mensah, Opoku Sampane and ...

He played forTano Bafoakwa.
What is he up to today should have been covered.
He was a force to reckoned with at the front alongside Kwasi Owusu also a Bafoakwa forward player.
Am currently helping the young ones in my home town Chiraa in Sunyani West District.
The Dan/Kwasi Owusu era of Ghana football makes today’s football look like kids game. Those were the days when Ghana football was worth watching. You simply didn’t want to miss a football game.
Dan owusu and his younger brother Kwesi owusu
We're they related? I doubt it.
Kwasi Owusu was much older than Dan Owusu. Besides, they were not related
I believe Kwasi Owusu played for BA United,please correct me,Dan Owusu sojourned to the US for many years,while Kwasi Owusu worked with National Sports Council in Sunyani.
Kwasi Owusu never played for BA U nited. He spent all his playing life as the captain of Bofoakwa Tano and later as captain of the Black Stars.
What about Ishmael Addo of Hearts of Oak? Didn't he also win the top marksman award on 3 consecutive occasions?
One of the best till he sustained that horrific injury when Ghana played against Ivory Coast in Abidjan. After that he struggled to regain his skills again. The leg breaking affected all the players and remember vividly the s ...

Maestro, great to know that you are doing well. How about setting up a consultancy to help clubs to train strikers? Or conducting paid workshops with other former Strikers for coaches and players? Ghana needs strikers
Papa, I actually didn't see much of ur playing times but I remember your coaching prowess from A to Z when you revived the dead careers of George Arthur, Ntow Gyan, Kwaku Manu, Sara Mensah and Anane Kobo to a top notch talent ...

I remember as a young boy, I was watching them every week at the sunyani stadium. I remember Kwasi Owusu, Dan Owusu, Agyeman, Asumadu and Akapko. These people made Tano Bofoakwa a formidable team to reckon with. Those were th ...

In those days Akwasi Owusu was rated above his peers. Akwasi Owusu was a households name both in Ghana and the rest of the football world in Africa. Akwasi Owusu also spelled as Kwasi Wusu was nicknamed Power House for his fe ...
