Asamoah Gyan reveals why he struggled at Legon Cities

Legendary Ghanaian forward, Asamoah Gyan

Legendary Ghanaian forward, Asamoah Gyan, has revealed that he was asked to take a break from football by doctors following his persistent injuries at Legon Cities.

The former Ghana captain made only five appearances for the Royals during an ill-fated second stint in the domestic topflight.

According to Gyan, injuries hampered his stay at Legon Cities forcing him to take a break from the sport.

However, the 36-year-old is preparing for a likely return to the Black Stars ahead of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.

“When I was at Legon Cities, I was battling with injuries. Anytime I am in form and I tell my people this week I feel good and I am going to score then I get injured then I go back for another two months,” Gyan told Dentaa.

“I went for check-ups and the doctor said my muscles are tired. So I needed a long break to make sure everything heals because it looked like my body was stressed, the body was tired,” he added.
