SSC Napoli v Juventus - Serie A
Asamoah has made only 10 appearances this season

The Ghanaian utility player was one of Juve's most popular assets during Antonio Conte's reign in Turin.

Asamoah was a versatile player who was as comfortable in midfield as he was at left back or as a left winger. He was an extremely important player for Juve when they were just beginning to reassert their dominance in Serie A.

His performances with Udinese and with Ghana had caught the attention of several big clubs before Juventus signed him in 2012 on a co-ownership contract.

He was a mainstay in the first team for his first couple of seasons at the club. But over the last four seasons, he's made only 46 league appearances.

The signing of left-back Alex Sandro and midfielders like Sami Khedira and Paul Pogba limited his opportunities, and he has gradually faded into obscurity.
