The former captain of the Ghana Black Stars, Asamoah Gyan has rendered an apology to the Ghana Football Association over a comment he passed about the Black Stars squad to face Nigeria.
In a former tweet, Asamoah Gyan described Majeed Ashimeru’s omission from the Black Stars squad as nonsense.
He indicated that Ashimeru is the best Ghanaian midfielder after Thomas Partey and should have been included in the team to face Nigeria in the World Cup playoffs.
