During his days as a footballer, Addo played with many great Ghanaians but he was particularly impressed with Michael Essien and Asamoah Gyan.
“Essien or Asamoah Gyan. One of the two. Essien was maybe more international. Outside Ghana, he had a big name. He had big impact in European football and Asamoah Gyan had a big impact in the national team, especially with a lot of goals. I think what he did for Ghana is legendary.”
