“Out of respect for the player [Gyan] and a friend of mine as a person, I will prefer to discuss this issue with him in person, rather than sharing with the outside world,” Boateng said, as quoted by Pulse.

“We haven’t spoken to Gyan yet so we will not disclose anything until we have spoken to the player himself.

“We as staff have so much respect for Gyan. As a player and person, he is a very good friend of mine and what he has done for Ghana is amazing. Top goal scorer, six goals at the World Cup, it’s amazing. You can only applaud his achievement."

Asamoah Gyan has been having personal training to stay in shape ahead of the tournament which begins in November.
