The 31-year-old sealed his first deal abroad with Udinese in 2003, but he was loaned to Modena in the Serie B after just a game.

At Modena Asamoah Gyan featured 54 times and scored 15 goals in the Italian second tier league from the 2003-04 season to the 2004-05 season.

He returned to his parent club in the 2005-06 season and after two seasons he had scored 11 goals in 39 appearances for Udinese.

Sunderland swooped Asamoah Gyan in the January transfer window of the 200-11 season. The Black Stars skipper played 37 games and scored 11 goals in the process for the then English Premier League side.

After the first half of the 2011-12 season Gyan made a shocking move from the English Premier League to the UAE topflight league where he was offered a good deal by Al Ain.

The former Liberty Professionals marksman spent three and half seasons in the UAE Professional League and bagged 113 goals in 104 appearances, winning the top scorer’s award in the league for three consecutive seasons.

But he couldn’t leave up to the billing due to injuries. Gyan managed just 26 appearances and scored eight (8) goals.

Asamoah Gyan went for a season long loan with Al Ahly Dubai in a return to the UAE league. He registered six (6) goals in 16 games, before Kayserispor this week in the Turkish topflight league.
