Afcon: Gyan asked to apologise to Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah after captaincy controversy

Veteran Ghanaian coach Joseph Emmanuel 'JE' Sarpong wants Ghana striker Asamoah Gyan to offer an apology to national team boss James Kwasi Appiah after rescinding a decision to retire from international duty.

On Monday, the 33-year-old Kayserispor ace sensationally called time on his Black Stars career, citing displeasure about being stripped of the captaincy ahead of next month's Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt, having held the role since 2013.

He, however, made a U-turn on Thursday after receiving a plea from Ghana president Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to reconsider his decision.
