    FA Must Add Asamoah Gyan to the 2021 AFCON Squad- Seasoned Journalist

    Seasoned journalist, Kwabena Yeboah thinks Asamoah Gyan should be added to the 2021 AFCON squad.

    The competition is set to come off on 9th January 2022 in Cameroon with Ghana set to battle Morocco, Comoros and Gabon in Group C.

    Gyan, who now plays for Legon Cities, has been away from the Black Stars for two years. But, Yeboah believes that his experience will be needed.

    “I would want to urge the FA to make Asamoah Gyan part of Ghana’s team for the 2021 AFCON. If not to play, he has a wealth of experience and has a lot of inspiration to give the players. His presence alone can serve as great inspiration for the players so I want the FA to make him part of team Ghana,” Kwabena Yeboah told Joy Sports.

    Gyan is Ghana’s all-time top scorer with 51 goals to his name.
