“Anything can happen” – Asamoah Gyan not ruling out playing at AFCON 2021

Veteran Ghana striker Asamoah Gyan is not looking to bow out of the game just yet, despite a frustrating 20/21 season.

Back home in the Ghana Premier League after 17 years abroad, the 35-year-old endured a difficult time with Legon Cities, battling with injuries for the most time of the campaign as the club fought relegation.

He made just six appearances for the Accra-based club and failed to find the back of the net, heightening calls for retirement from the beautiful game.

“I have not retired from football,” Gyan told Kessben FM.

“There were some injuries last season, but I am not done playing football. I can wake up one day and announce my retirement from football but at the moment, I am active.

Asked whether he still wants to play at AFCON 2021, Gyan said: “Anything is possible. People will criticize me but I am only hoping to get back to my normal form and weight but if I am not able to regain my form, then I will call it off. But at the moment, I am working on myself to lose weight.

“I returned to Legon Cities and you could clearly see that things did not go as planned because I have to put on weight but I am giving myself another season and I trust I will be back to my form. And if I am on my form, I don’t think I will be overlooked. But for retirement, not now.”

It is unclear where Gyan will be playing club football in the 2021-22 term after seeing out his season-long deal with Legon, whom he joined at the last hour after being heavily linked to 23-time Ghana Premier League champions Asante Kotoko.

The striker, Ghana’s most capped player, and all-time top scorer returned home after a spell with Indian Super League side NorthEast United.
