You may have heard of him, especially during the 2010 World Cup when all eyes were on him but things didn’t go as planned.

He represented Ghana in 2006, 2010 and 2014 FIFA World Cup. With six goals in World Cup history, he is the leading African goalscorer.
Asamoah is a Ghanaian forward, who was a former player of Legon Cities FC and was previously the captain of the Ghana national team.
He started his professional career with Ghana’s team Liberty Professionals from Accra. He spent two years on loan at Serie B side Modena after signing for Udinese in 2003 to gain more competitive experience.
He caught the attention of the Russian team Lokomotiv Moscow after some stellar performances at the 2006 World Cup.
Gyan returned to Udinese in early 2006 but the club cut short a January transfer window to sell him on 17 February 2007, the highest transfer fee in Russian football history.
Asamoah Gyan Asamoah was born on November 22, 1985, in Accra, Ghana. In November 2022 he will be 37 years old.
Education Gyan received his primary education from the Seven Great Princesses Academy in Dansoman, graduating in 1999, and his secondary education from Accra Academy, where he attended from 1999-2002.
The footballer prefers to keep his private life as private as possible, it is known that he was previously married to Gifty with whom he has three sons: Floyd Gyan, Rafael Gyan and Fredrick Gyan.
The couple were set to divorce after Gyan suspected Gifty was cheating on him and even demanded a DNA test.
Asamoah Gyan Net Worth
Asamoah’s net worth was recently estimated at $23 million and the forward made most of his money from the football field.
Aside from his hefty salary from football, however, Gyan has several lucrative businesses ranging from a private airline to grain and noodle businesses.
With his solid commercial footing, the African footballer seems to have laid the groundwork for a new life after retiring from football.
Asamoah Gyan’s Mansion
The Black Stars forward lives the high life. One of Ghana’s richest soccer players, the soccer player-turned-business tycoon spends big bucks on luxurious mansions and exotic cars.
His Ghanaian mansion is worth around $3 million, and given the building’s top-notch finishes, you’ll agree the money was well spent. Asamoah Gyan Rolls Royce cars by Asamoah.
Gyan is a footballer who doesn’t mind flaunting his exotic car collection on social media. We spotted him on Instagram with a fleet of rides, including a $400,000 gold Rolls Royce.
The golden colour of the car represents the luxury that comes with such a high taste. He also bought a Mercedes-Benz SLA AMG worth over $250,000, similar to the Rolls Royce.
However, the Mercedes is cheaper than the Rolls Royce. It features alloy wheels, front electric windows and automatic climate control.
The footballer has shown other cars at least as expensive as these two in several social media posts. Of course, you would expect nothing less from a brilliant footballer and businessman who earns more than six figures a year.
How Asamoah Gyan Spends
His Net Worth It has become the norm for the world’s rich and famous to spend money like it’s going out of style, and who could blame them?
Because what goes out of their pockets will be replaced a hundredfold in the next second. In the case of Ghanaian top scorer Asamoah Gyan, the footballer-turned-businessman spends as much as he earns building and decorating his home and a collection of exotic cars.
Retirement
Gyan says his professional career is not over as he strives to regain health and shape. The 36-year-old played for Legon Cities from the Ghana Premier League (GPL) in the 2020/21 season and joined as a free agent last November.
Many had assumed Gyan would step down now that the GPL is over, but the former Black Stars captain insists he is still hungry to play.
Speaking to Ghana’s Kessben FM, Gyan explained his desire to continue with football, saying: “There were some injuries last season but I’m not done playing football yet.
Then of course I can wake up one day and announce my retirement from football, but for now, I’m active.
“People will criticize me but I’m just hoping to get back to my usual shape and weight. But if I can’t get my form back I’ll cancel it, but I’m working on myself now to lose weight.”
He continued, “I came back to Legon Cities and you could see things weren’t going as planned because I’ve gained weight but I’m giving myself another season and I’m confident that I’ll be back in shape and if I’m in shape I don’t think I’ll be overlooked but for retirement, not now. Gyan is planning to return to the Black Stars regarding the upcoming Qatar World Cup tournament.
