Asamoah Gyan Career Goals : Asamoah Gyan excited Ghana football fans with his talent in the 2003 Ghana Premier League on the roster of Liberty Professionals as a 18-year old attacking prodigy.

Gyan did not win the most prestigious leagues such as the Premier League , the French Ligue 1 or the Italy Serie A but his goal scoring prowess put him on the map alongside the very best names in the game.

GhanaSportsMarket.com takes you through the full breakdown of all 252 CAREER GOALS of Asamoah Gyan for club and country at the senior level.
