“The World Cup is every footballer’s dream. I think I’ve got a bit of energy left in me to prove myself once again. I’ve been out for almost two years now due to injuries but I just need to get my body back in shape. It’s an eight-week programme and according to my physical instructor, I’m improving faster than he thought," Asamoah Gyan told the BBC.
While others have raised objections about his inactiveness for the past two seasons, Bernard Don Bortey has told Ghanaians to remember what Asamoah Gyan has done and can do before they run him down.
"What he [Gyan] said he will do, he can. Roger Miller has done it before and I think Gyan is good and can change his fitness level and make us proud in the FIFA World Cup,” Bernard Don Bortey told Kumasi-based Wuntumi FM.
Asamoah Gyan who is Ghana's all-time top scorer with 51 goals has been out of the Black Stars since the 2019 African Cup of Nations.
