Ghana legend Asamoah Gyan is not ruling out an eighth Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) outing come Cameroon 2021.
The striker, who is enjoying a bright start to life at Indian Super League side NorthEast United, has featured in every Afcon since Ghana last hosted in 2008 (+2010, 2012, 2013, 2015, 2017, 2019) and says “when the time comes and I am available, why not?”
The former Sunderland man, who turned 34 in November, was overlooked when Ghana began its qualifying campaign to the 2021 Afcon with victories over South Africa and Sao Tome same month.<
Despite signals that he might not be considered again by current coach Kwasi Appiah, Gyan, who is at the twilight of his career, has indicated that he is not calling time on his international career yet.
“I am available for Ghana right now,” he said in an interview with Hindustantimes.
Asamoah Gyan is Ghana’s record scorer with 51 goals in 109 appearances. He made his debut at age 17 in 2003.
