“Asamoah Gyan“ still in my plans-Bashiru Hayford
Ghana international Asamoah Gyan is expected to return to action before the end of the first round of the Ghana Premier League, coach Bashir Hayford has revealed.
The former Sunderland and Shanghai Shenhua forward has been out of action for some weeks after suffering a groin injury at training last year.
Gyan who joined the club in a big-money move on transfer deadline day is yet to impress as he continues to battle with his fitness level.
The Royals beat the Ashantigold 5-2 to record their second win of the season in matchday 10 of the Ghana Premier League.
Speaking after the game, the former Asante Kotoko trainer hinted the veteran striker could be back before the end of the first round.
”Asamoah Gyan complained about groin just two days to our game and the physio gave him two weeks to come back, there is no coach who will have Asamoah Gyan in his team and bench him”
“If Gyan is even just 20% fit I will use him, I can only say that hopefully we might see him before the end of the first round” He added
Asamoah Gyan has played three games in the ongoing Ghana Premier League.
