Former Black Stars captain Asamoah Gyan has stated that some people motivated him to avail himself for the 2022 World Cup and that is why he did it.
Earlier in 2022, Gyan caused a stir among Ghanaians by stating that he is willing to play for the team in Qatar. Ultimately, he did not make it.
“There was lots of talk on the street, with people motivating you that you can really do it. My aim was to do it for the people and make them happy. They made me happy, and they are the same people calling me that you can do it,” he said, as quoted by Pulse.
“So, I was like let me do it. Let me get to that level and see but unfortunately, it didn’t happen… I said in one of the interviews that I had to earn the call up.
“People took it wrong and started bashing me, saying some things and insulting me.”
Gyan has scored 51 goals for the Black Stars.
