‘Afena Gyan Should Be Going To World Cup’-Fans On Social Media Insist
Black Stars head coach, Otto Addo, Today, November 14, named his final 26-man squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
As usual in any final team squad for any tournament, there were inclusions and exclusions that calls for debate with Otto Addo’s final team squad not any different.
According to the GFA President, Kurt Okraku, the discussions on who should have made it to the World Cup must stop now after the announcement of the squad.
But social media users insists the Cremonese winger deserves a chance in the Ghana squad.
I think Ghana Black Stars are not being Fair to Afena Gyan. Man came to represent his country even when no player wanted to come. Ignored Mourinho only for ghana to deny him a dream.

This boy is the reason Ghana qualified for the World Cup. He was the main striker for the past recent games but not even on bench for the Blackstars.
Thank God for his age.
Afena Gyan wasn’t treated well.
The best of luck to the Blackstars 🇬🇭 🇬🇭 pic.twitter.com/lh2eGhYZYd— Lewis.K.Frimpong (@lewis_kwasi) November 14, 2022
Whilst Victor Oshimen was squandering chances in the Ghana 🇬🇭 and Nigeria🇳🇬 game Afena Gyan was upfront creating problems for the Nigerian defense line. U drop the lad from the squad. Hmmm GFA and Otto Addo

Jose Mourinho adviced Afena Gyan not to accept this Black star call-up, but to stay and develop himself. Man didn’t listen and look at him now. Ghana is never a country that you should sacrifice for.

Someone helped Blackstars to qualify ahead of the World Cup only for him to be taken off the squad to play in the World Cup. Afena Gyan should be more angry about this!!!
