Asamoah Gyan, Ghana’s all-time leading scorer, has responded to speculation regarding whether he should be included in the Black Stars squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
Following Ghana’s qualifying for the 2022 World Cup due to the inefficiency of the Black Stars forwards, the name of Africa’s highest scorer at the FIFA World Cup came up for discussion.
When asked if he would like to return to the World Cup after captaining the Black Stars to victories in 2006, 2010, and 2014 in Brazil, Asamoah Gyan expressed his desire to return.
“Who doesn’t want to play at the World Cup? Every player wants to play at the World Cup,” he said.
“Yes, I have tasted the World Cup three times and though I would love to play at this year’s World Cup, as I have always said, I am currently not fit enough to play active football but when I Start playing – who knows?”
“I shall surely be in Qatar but maybe a pundit or let’s see,” Gyan added.
In three editions of the FIFA World Cup, Asamoah Gyan made twelve appearances and scored six goals.
On Saturday, April 30, 2022, the former Sunderland striker will publish his book, ‘Legyandary,’ at the Kempinski Hotel in Accra.
