Speaking to Accra-based Onua TV, Gyan said;
“I have played under so many good coaches, no disrespect but the favourite coach I was very comfortable with and I liked his style is Claude Le Roy,”.
“He gives you all the confidence in the world. He makes players comfortable. He treats starters and bench players equally.”
The former Sunderland striker has now revealed that Le Roy’s cordial treatment makes him his personal favourite among the other coaches he worked under during his time in the national team.
Le Roy was Ghana’s coach for a two-year period and was in charge of the Black Stars when the country hosted the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in 2008.
The 76-year-old made Gyan a starter during the tournament as Ghana went on to secure a bronze medal after finishing third.
