The head coach of Great Olympics, Yaw Preko, has likened Athletic Bilbao forward Inaki Williams to Ghana legendary striker Asamoah Gyan.
Gyan is currently the top goal scorer for the Black Stars of Ghana.
He has scored 51 goals in 109 appearances since making his debut in 2003.
Preko believes that if Ghana makes good use of new players in the national team, Inaki Williams could be as important as Gyan became during his prime.
Yaw Preko played in the Black Stars in 1991.
“We should make good use of Williams and benefit more from him. He is like Asamoah Gyan,” Preko told Angel TV.
Williams was invited to the Ghana squad for the first time in two friendlies against Brazil and Nicaragua after switching international allegiance from Spain.
He came on at halftime to make his first bow for Ghana in their 3-0 defeat to Brazil last week at the Stade Oceane in Le Havre, France.
He made his full debut for Ghana last Tuesday when the Black Stars recorded a 1-0 victory against Nicaragua in Lorca, Spain.
The 28-year-old scored and assisted Bilbao’s 4-0 thrashing of Almeria on Friday evening in the Spanish La Liga.
His younger brother Nico Williams who also made his Spain debut in the international break scored and grabbed an assist in the encounter.
