Ghanaian football legend Asamoah Gyan has disclosed his admiration for Brazilian icon Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima, considering him the greatest player ever due to his exceptional skills across all facets of the game.

Ronaldo, a three-time FIFA World Player of the Year, was renowned for his prowess in goal poaching, long-range strikes, and dominance in aerial duels, qualities that inspired Gyan throughout his career.

Drawing parallels to Ronaldo’s versatility, Gyan acknowledged the profound influence the Brazilian maestro had on his playing style. “Brazilian Ronaldo is the one from whom I drew a lot of inspiration,” Gyan expressed on YFM.

“To me, he is the greatest player of all time. He was a centre forward who could do everything. I grew up and acquired skills similar to his.”

Reflecting on his own abilities, Gyan emphasized his completeness as a striker, attributing his confidence to consistent goal-scoring records. “My talent was evident, and whenever I was on the field, the mindset was that I was going to score because of my talent,” he remarked.

Gyan holds the record for the most goals scored by any Ghanaian player, with an impressive 51 goals for the Black Stars. Additionally, he is Africa’s highest goal-scorer in World Cup history, netting a total of six goals across three World Cup appearances.

Liverpool among clubs interested in RB Salzburg’s Karim Konate

Liverpool and other top European clubs are eyeing Karim Konate, a 20-year-old forward from RB Salzburg who had a standout season in the Austrian Bundesliga.

Konate scored 20 goals in 29 games last season, surpassing his closest competitor, Marco Grull of Rapid Vienna, and drawing significant attention in the transfer market.

Liverpool’s interest in Konate is clear, although negotiations are not yet advanced. If Liverpool seeks a new striker this summer, Konate is a top candidate for their squad. However, competition from other Premier League giants like Manchester United suggests a potential transfer saga.

Interest in Konate extends beyond England, with clubs in Italy and Germany closely monitoring him. Following in the footsteps of former Salzburg stars Benjamin Sesko and Erling Haaland, Konate appears poised to be the next prominent striker to leave the Austrian club.

RB Salzburg holds Konate under contract until June 2028, having renewed his deal last August. They are likely to command a transfer fee similar to those received for Sesko (€24 million) and Haaland (€20 million).

Liverpool may have an advantage in negotiations due to their former assistant manager Pepijn Lijnders, who is set to lead Salzburg next season, potentially influencing the deal.
