The striker and captain of the Ghanaian National football team began his career in 2003 when he was only 17 years old. He then played for the Ghanaian Premier League Club.

In 2010, he signed a $13 million deal with Sunderland, and on 10th September 2011, he joined Al Ain on loan, after which he joined the club permanently.

Currently, Asamoah is the Striker-Centre-Forward for Kayserispor, a contract that began on July 5, 2017, which will end on July 30, 2019.

The 6’1” striker Asamoah Gyan has an estimated net worth of $23 million.

Asamoah’s assets include his McCarthy Hill house worth $3 million and his Rolls Royce worth about $400,000.

Asamoah has lately obtained a license to operate a private airline, ‘Baby Jet Airlines’ in Ghana.

Clearly, there is no stopping Ghana’s richest footballer.
