Amartey: Gyan, Black Stars coach Akonnor hail resurgent Ghana defender

Ghana striker Asamoah Gyan is full of praise for international teammate Daniel Amartey following the latter's return to Premier League action on Sunday after a two-year absence.

Out since sustaining an ankle injury against West Ham in October 2018, the defender made a comeback as his Leicester City side stunned Manchester City 5-2 at Etihad Stadium on matchday three of the 2020-21 season.

He lasted the entire game, with his performance drawing compliments from many pundits after the tie.
