Ghana legend Asamoah Gyan has described Nigerian legend Jay-Jay Okocha is one of the greatest players of all time.

According to Gyan, Gyan possesses one of the greatest skills set which makes him one of the best players ever in Africa.

He likened the former Paris Saint Germain star to Brazil legend Ronaldinho in terms of skills and ability to use the ball at their feet to wow fans.

“Hahaha… Jay-Jay [Okocha] is one of the best players Africa has ever produced, his skill scale, and his skill level was out of this world,” Gyan told SuperSport TV.

“I remember I was watching him when I was at school, he is one of the greatest players, one of those guys who opened the way for us, those guys who were playing at that time and you could see Ronaldinho on the bench, he was up there, he was one of the best and am happy to see him play, his skill level was great, I saw him in the World Cup with Nigeria.”

Gyan is Ghana’s all time top scorer with 51 goals to his name in 109 appearances
