Video: Ghana legend Asamoah Gyan speaks to Liverpool star Sadio Mane

Former Black Stars captain Asamoah Gyan has for the first time had an interaction with Senegal and Liverpool star Sadio Mane.

Gyan will be launching his book on Saturday, April 30, 2022 at the nation’s capital, Accra.

Ahead of the event, a chunk of dignitaries from around the continent, including CAF President Patrice Motsepe, El Hadji Diouf, Didier Drogba, Emmanuel Adebayor, Austin “Jay Jay” Okocha and others are expected to grace the occasion.

Diouf, who arrived in Ghana on Thursday, had a dinner with Gyan and his team where he put Mane on the line for Gyan to chat with.

In a video posted by @ghhyper1, Gyan was seen sharing some words of encouragement with the Liverpool forward.

During the conversation, the former Sunderland ace noted Mane and his Liverpool teammate, Mohammed Salah, are now the faces of African football and must strive to fly the flag high.

Gyan, who is currently without a club is the all-time leading goalscorer of the Black Stars, with 51 goals.

He represented Ghana at the 2006, 2010 and 2014 FIFA World Cups.

With six goals, he is the top African goalscorer in the history of the World Cup.
