Asamoah Gyan Calls for Centering the Black Stars Team on Mohammed Kudus

Former Ghana international Asamoah Gyan believes Mohammed Kudus should be the face of the Black Stars team. According to Gyan, the West Ham United midfielder’s performances for both club and country warrant the team be built around him.

Since making his debut in 2019, Kudus has become a fan favorite in the national team and has repaid the support with nine goals in 26 games for the Black Stars. However, Gyan has urged handlers of the national team to build the team around the 23-year-old versatile midfielder.

“So far it’s obvious – Mohammed Kudus,” Gyan said when quizzed about who should be the face of the new Black Stars project. “During my era, we had a lot of good players and eventually it got to my turn.

“At the moment, it’s Mohammed Kudus. He’s the only Ghanaian player performing well now in Europe and he is doing it in the Premier League. “Even in Africa, he is the only one doing so well in Europe. So we have to just support him.”
