Former Ghanaian striker Majeed Abdul Waris has voiced his opinion, urging the inclusion of legendary forward Asamoah Gyan in the management of Ghana football.
Waris, who believes Gyan has the nation at heart, asserts that the former captain could make a positive impact if involved with the Ghana Football Association.
This suggestion comes in the aftermath of Ghana’s early exit from the Africa Cup of Nations, prompting discussions on potential changes within the football administration.
Gyan, who has closely followed the Black Stars since his retirement, has not explicitly expressed a desire for a managerial role.
However, Waris, drawing on their shared experiences playing for the national team, emphasises Gyan’s commitment to the country.
The plea for Gyan’s involvement in football management is seen as a way to bring fresh perspectives and expertise to address the challenges facing Ghanaian football.
Both Waris and Gyan, who were integral members of the squad that qualified Ghana for the 2014 World Cup, share a history of representing the Black Stars.
While Waris currently plays for Anorthosis Famagusta in Cyprus, the spotlight is on the potential contributions of Gyan, a revered figure in Ghanaian football, to the future development of the sport in the country.
