Legendary Ghanaian striker Asamoah Gyan has a point to prove after signing for Legon Cities FC ahead of the 2020/21 Ghana Premier League season.

The 34 year old has been inactive since he was released by Indian Super League side NorthEast United in January.

His move seals a return to the local league since he last featured in it 2003 while on the books of Liberty Professionals.

In his one and only season in Ghana’s top flight, the Baby Jet netted 10 goals and finished third on the top scorers list despite missing a chunk of matches due to trials abroad.

The consensus in the media viewed the deal which is reportedly worth over $1 million, as the most significant step yet in Legon Cities bid to win the Premier League title.

The former Sunderland hitman will also be highly motivated to silence some critics who think that his best years are behind him.
