He is the flashiest player I have coached – Former Sunderland coach Steve Bruce lauds Asamoah Gyan
Former Sunderland coach, Steve Bruce has labelled Asamoah Gyan as the flashiest player he ever managed at the club.
On 31 August 2010, Gyan, who is a former Black Stars skipper signed for Sunderland on a four-year deal for a club record £13 million when Bruce was in charge at the club.
Gyan certainly left an impression on Steve Bruce with his dressing, and the English coach believes that he is the flashiest player he has ever coached.
“Without question, we had a kid called Asamoah Gyan who we signed at Sunderland,” he said in a TikTok Q&A challenge.
However, barely a year into his contract, the former Udinese Calcio striker secured a loan move to United Arab Emirates side Al-Ain.
The deal was subsequently made permanent with Gyan joining the UAE club. The former Liberty Professional striker featured 34 times for Sunderland and scored 10 times during the 2010/2011 Premier League season.
