In a video shared on social media, Bruce is seen giving a straight answer on the flashiest player he ever managed. Gyan replied under the post with a very short sentence, confirming the manager's answer.
He wrote on X: "If you know, you know."
Gyan, who had won the BBC Player of the Year award during his time in England, left pre-maturely for the Gulf to join Al Ain, as reported by Chronicle Live.
Asamoah Gyan's illustrious international career
Gyan might have not enjoyed so much success in his club career, having spent most of his time in Asia playing for Al Ain, Shabab Al Ahli and Shanghai SIPG.
However, he holds the record as the African player with the most goals at the FIFA World Cup, scoring six goals in three tournaments.
The former Stade Rennais star is also Ghana's all-time leading scorer with 51 goals in 109 matches.
Gyan retired from professional football last year and has since been involved in the hunt for the next generation of talents for Ghana with his All Regional Games initiative.
Gyan's career in retrospect
Long before his European adventures, Gyan’s journey began in the bustling streets of Dansoman with Liberty Professionals.
Nicknamed the Baby Jet for his lightning speed, a title inspired by Ghanaian sprint legend Alice Anum, Gyan quickly became a household name.
Beyond his club career, his contributions to the national team are unrivalled. He remains Ghana’s all-time leading goal scorer, having netted 51 goals for the Black Stars, per Ghanasoccernet.
From dramatic World Cup moments to unforgettable AFCON appearances, Gyan's story is stitched into the fabric of Ghana’s football heritage.
