"Yes, it’s true. Gyan will be taking the first steps to coaching this June. He’s keen to do somebody for the game,’’ his local manager Sammy Anim told GHANAsoccernet.

"There’s no doubt about his soccer IQ and love for the game so he wants to take it to the next level,’’

‘'He will love to be a coach in future and this is the first step to realising that dream.’’

The 36-year-old striker is yet to announce his retirement from football but has been inactive and unattached for almost a year following the expiration of his contract with Ghana Premier League outfit Legon Cities.

Gyan will be in class for a six-day programme for a Football Association of Wales’ Uefa B License certificate. It is a residential course for those who have experience in playing or coaching within the professional game.
