Former Legon Cities forward, Asamoah Gyan, has reiterated his desire to play for Asante Kotoko in the Ghana Premier League.
The 36-year-old is a boyhood fan of the Porcupine Warriors and was close to signing for the club before Legon Cities snatched him prior to the 2020/21 season.
According to Gyan, the reason he opted to sign for the Royals was his increasing desire to continue staying in Accra.
“I have been an Accra boy. I didn’t want to move to another City and then Legon Cities contacted me. Although I was talking to Kotoko but I had wanted to be in Accra,” he said on the Dentaa Show.
Gyan, who is targeting a return to the Black Stars ahead of the 2022 World Cup, says he will play for Kotoko should he regain fitness.
“When I get fit and start playing competitive football, obviously I will play for Kotoko.”
The former Liberty man has already started individual training as he wants to get back in shape and play active football again after almost a two-year absence.
