The 33-year-old believes nothing would surpass such a feat, should he lead his country to the coveted trophy.
Ghana has won the AFCON four times in the past, but the country’s last triumph came over three decades ago.
It’s now been 37 years since the Black Stars conquered Africa, despite the team coming close in recent years.
Ghana has qualified for the AFCON in each of the last seven editions and were losing finalists in 2010 and 2015.
