Asamoah Gyan discusses his future plans to lead his boyhood team, Asante Kotoko

Gyan, with his 51 goals, is Ghana's all-time top scorer and the greatest-scoring African in World Cup history. However, upon his return to the local scene, he was unable to play for the giants of Ghana.

The former Black Stars striker, who announced his speedy comeback in October 2023, made his first appearance in domestic football since leaving Liberty Professionals in 2003 in search of better opportunities when he signed with Legon Cities for the 2021/22 season.

Many had predicted Gyan to sign with Asante Kotoko before joining Legon Cities.

The former Sunderland great, who lost out on the opportunity to play for Kotoko, stated in a UTV interview that Footballghana.com saw that he would happily take Kotoko's coaching position should the need arise in the future if he is interested in coaching.

"Why not?" he responded when asked if he would be open to coaching Kotoko in the future. If Kotoko hires me as a coach, I will gladly accept.

The former captain of the Black Stars is eligible to become a coach because he has already obtained his UEFA B coaching license.

Following his announcement of his football retirement, Gyan has been working on several initiatives, one of which is the All Regional Games, which are scheduled for November 2024.

Before the general elections of 2024, the former captain of the Black Stars served as the head of Dr. Bawumia's manifesto committee.
