Asked what the highest point of his career is, Gyan told pulse.com.gh: “Being able to play at the World Cup.”
He explained: “It’s not an easy task for any footballer. It’s every footballer’s dream to play at the World Cup.”
The NorthEast United forward also touched on the best goal he has scored in his football career.
According to him, the strike against the USA at the 2010 World Cup stands tall.

He was, however, quick to point out that most of his exceptional strikes were not captured on camera for the world to see.
“People saw the World Cup goal against the USA, people saw my goal against England [but] there are a lot of goals I scored that the camera couldn’t capture.
“For now, though, I’ll say the goal against the United States in 2010 [is my greatest],” he quipped.
Gyan is currently Ghana’s all-time top scorer with an impressive 51 goals.
