Ghanaians have taken to social media to celebrate Black Stars legend Asamoah Gyan, following his retirement from active football.
The former Black Stars captain on Tuesday, June 20, released a statement on social media confirming his retirement.
“Mr. President, Ministers of State, members of the board, fellow Speakers, nananom, niim3, naam3, I want to take this great opportunity, a stage that is difficult in every footballer's career, a moment all footballers do not wish, but when nature dawns, that thin voice will keep echoing into the ears ... IT IS TIME ... that voice has been clear in my ears, and I have succumbed to it, IT IS TIME,” Asamoah Gyan said.
The former Sunderland forward continued, “IT IS TIME TO HANG THE JERSEY AND BOOTS IN GLORY as I retire officially from active football, ... but then again, I am minded by views shared by great businesses men and sporting gurus, "YOU DO NOT LEAVE YOUR LOVE.”
In the comments section of his post on social media, many Ghanaians have shared some kind words to celebrate Asamoah Gyan.
While some described the 37-year-old as a legend of the game, others stressed that he is the Greatest of All Time when it comes to football in Ghana.
“Will never leave my love “
