Ghanaian footballer and former captain of the national team, the Black Stars has dispelled claims that he is planning to hang his boots and call it done in his career.

Asamoah Gyan who currently plays for local premier league club, Legon Cities stated that he is not done with football and is working towards bouncing back to his good form and play for the national team again.

Speaking to Kessben FM in an interview, the 35-year-old former Sunderland attacker lamented that he has put on weight and is working on losing weight and hoped to get in great shape and form in the new season

He said;

“I have not retired from football. 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,”.

“People will criticise 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 my weight.

“I returned to Legon Cities and you could clearly see that things did not go as planned because I have 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.”
