Ghanaian footballer, Asamoah Gyan has been honoured with his own questionable statue just days after Ghana’s Michael Essien was honoured with a bizarre statue. Gyan was honoured with a statue in Kumasi, southern Ghana, in tribute to his services for his country.

It is understood that the sculptor who designed former Chelsea midfielder Essien’s statue, erected another for the Black Stars skipper to honour him as the country’s all-time top goalscorer, with 52 goals.

32-year-old Gyan is one of the most celebrated Ghana players of all-time, after featuring in three World Cups and six Africa Cup of Nations tournaments.

Gyan’s statue comes after Essien, who made 256 appearances at Stamford Bridge for Chelsea between 2005 and 2014, was honoured with his own in his homeland.
