Asamoah Gyan Wants Inter Midfielder Sulley Muntari To Join Him At Sunderland

Asamoah Gyan has revealed he would love to see Ghana team-mate Sulley Muntari join him at Sunderland.

Muntari has fallen out of favour at Inter Milan since his move from Portsmouth in 2008 and has been linked with a return to England.

He has expressed a desire to leave the San Siro and Steve Bruce has already submitted a loan offer for the player.

Reports have suggested that the midfielder would be open to a return to the Premier League, although Muntari is believed to favour a move to London.

However, Gyan has called on his countryman to join him in the North East and believes the 26-year-old would be a great addition to the Sunderland side.

"Sulley would give us a big boost," he told Sky Sports.

"He would be loved by the fans if he was here. The fans like players who fight for the team and he is certainly one of them.

"Muntari is a quality player, with features similar to Lee Catermole. He has a big left foot and can shoot from distance."

Gyan and Muntari featured together in Ghana's World Cup 2010 campaign and the striker is to see Muntari make the switch to Sunderland.

He added: "I've known him a long time and I would be very happy if he came to us.
"I'd love to play in the club with him."
