Veteran Ghanaian coach Joseph Emmanuel Sarpong has revealed how Ghana legend Asamoah Gyan failed to deliver his promise to him.
The former Asante Kotoko coach who played a significant role in Gyan’s football career in an interview disclosed the former promised to buy him a customized car but failed to deliver.
"I was then coaching Dwarfs, and he called me to come to his place in Accra, initially, I didn't want to go, but he insisted, and I went there. We spoke and even shared some memories during our stay at Accra Academy," he told Ernest Brew Smith.
"He recognized that I was still using the same car I was using when I coached him."
"He promised to buy me a brand-new car when he returns to China and even added that he will customize it in my name and pay all the duties on it," he revealed.
"It's been years, and I don't know if I will get the car today or in ten years' time. I don't blame him entirely, but the people around him," he insisted.
The former Legon Cities striker has been without a club since the end of 2020/22 season but insists that he hasn't retired from professional football.
