Ghana international striker Asamoah Gyan claims playing at the FIFA World Cup is the highest mark of his footballing career.

Gyan made three appearances the World's flagship football tournament with the Black Stars in 2006 in Germany, 2010 in South Africa and 2014 in Brazil.

The 34-year-old had an impressive outing in all the three tournaments he featured in, becoming highest scoring African player at the World Cup with six goals.

Speaking in an interview with Pulse.com.gh, the ex-Ghana skipper said nothing compares to being able to play at the World Cup.

"Being able to play at the World Cup is the highest point of my career," he said

"It’s not an easy task for any footballer to get there. It’s every footballer’s dream to play at the World Cup."

Gyan is currently Ghana’s all-time top scorer with an impressive 51 goals.
