Asamoah Gyan backtracks on retirement, returns to Black Stars

Asamoah Gyan has backtracked from his decisions to retire from the Black Stars following an intervention from the President.

In a statement, the former skipper said “I have spoken to President Akufo-Addo in good faith and will now make myself available for selection by coach Kwasi Appiah”.

“The President urged him, in the national interest, to rescind his decision to retire from the Black Stars, and make himself available for selection by Coach Kwasi Appiah,” the director of communications at the presidency Eugene Arhin said in a Facebook post
