“Talking about politics anything can happen, but for now politics is not on my mind. Sometimes the people choose you, people can choose you to lead them. When the roads were going on plus other projects, many people were urging me to lead them as their MP.

“Some people did not plan to do politics but at the end of the day they are doing politics which is a normal thing."

Gyan is currently Ghana’s all-time top scorer with 51 goals from 109 games for the Black Stars.
