An official Press Release confirming his comeback into the national team is expected in the next few hours. Our sources in the Gyan camp say the player could not refuse the President's request for him to return to the national team for the 2019 AFCON. President Akufo-Addo, subsequently, also spoke on the telephone with Asamoah Gyan, and informed him of the considerable national disquiet over his decision to retire from the Black Stars. 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". Gyan quit the team yesterday over a decision to strip him of the captain’s armband for AFCON 2019.
