Asamoah Gyan is the the all-time top scorer of the Black Stars with 52 goals

A statue of the Black Stars skipper Asamoah Gyan erected in the Ashanti regional capital, Kumasi doesn’t look like him.

Wearing a Black Stars shirt with the classic Puma, Essien's statue doesn't look like him. However, he looked excited when he posed for a photo with his bizarre statue erected in Kumasi in his memory.

It is understood the statue was build to celebrate the 32-year-old for scoring 52 goals for the senior national male football team of Ghana.

It is also believed the statue was designed by the same sculptor who erected a another bizarre statue in memory of former Chelsea midfielder Michael Essien in Kumasi.
