“Asamoah Gyan will join Kotoko if….”-Anim Addo hints
Former Black Stars captain Asamoah Gyan will not resist an offer to play for Kumasi Asante Kotoko once it is enticing and with complete offer, his manager has revealed.
The player has been linked with several local clubs, including the Porcupine Warriors, who want to bolster their side ahead of their domestic campaign in the upcoming CAF Champions League.
Gyan’s local manager, Samuel Anim Addo, told the Graphic Sports last Friday that even though Kotoko had not make any official approach for Gyan, the football star won’t hesitate to join the club once the offer was good.
The 34-year-old attacker became a free agent following the termination of his contract by Indian side NorthEast United last January after his season was disrupted by injuries. The forward scored just four goals in eight appearances.
“Gyan has had offers from Europe and Asia but if Kotoko can meet our terms, then why not?” he said in response to the question on whether or not the player would accept to play for Kotoko.
Mr Anim Addo also indicated that no local club had formally made an approach to sign Gyan despite reports linking the prolific scorer with a return to local football, 17 years after he left Liberty Professionals as a teenager for a professional career in Europe.
If he agrees to join Kotoko, he will be following in the footsteps of his elder brother, Baffour, who also featured for the Porcupine Warriors in the 2010/11 season in the twilight of his career.
