Former Black Star Striker Reveals When He will Join Ghana Premier League Champions

Former Black Star Striker, Asamoah Gyan, has reiterated his desire to play for Asante Kotoko in the Ghana Premier League.

The 36-year-old is a boyhood fan of the Porcupine Warriors and was close to signing for the club before Legon Cities snatched him prior to the 2020/21 season.

According to Gyan, the reason he opted to sign for the Royals was his increasing desire to continue staying in Accra.

“I have been an Accra boy. I didn’t want to move to another City and then Legon Cities contacted me. Although I was talking to Kotoko but I had wanted to be in Accra,” he said on the Dentaa Show.

Gyan, who is targeting a return to the Black Stars ahead of the 2022 World Cup, says he will play for Kotoko should he regain fitness.

“When I get fit and start playing competitive football, obviously I will play for Kotoko.”

The former Liberty man has already started individual training as he wants to get back in shape and play active football again after almost a two-year absence.
