Former Ghana captain Asamoah Gyan suggests five-year plan to build Black Stars

Former Ghana captain Asamoah Gyan has shared how the Black Stars can reclaim its lost glory.

The Black Stars ended their winless run this year following back-to-back wins over Mali and Central Africa Republic in early June.

Ghana inflicted a 2-1 away win over the Eagles in Bamako before returning to Kumasi to beat Central Africa Republic 4-3 at the Baba Yara Stadium.

Speaking on UTV monitored by Footballghana.com, the all-time topscorer of the national team advocated for a long-term plan to develop the Black Stars to certain level.

“The team has given us hope in their last two games. The important thing is the win and nothing else. They have raised the spirit high. I will urge Ghanaians to support the team but what matters most is consistency”

“We should take it game by game and make sure we win. We have quality. It is a young team which is a new generation of the Black Stars. You could see none of the new players have played more than 30 games and that tells you it’s a new generation”

“We should limit our expectations and not dwell in the past. Let forget about the past (what we did) and focus on this team. We should build them to a certain level. We are building team so we should not be thinking of winning AFCON trophies, if we win it’s a plus”

“In five years’ time, if we are able to maintain 80% of this team they can dominate. It should be a five-year project and I’m sure they can deliver”
