Ghanaian and African legend Asamoah Gyan is much pleased with football development on the African continent and believes they are on the right path.

Africa’s top-scorer at the FIFA World Cup made this revelations known in an interview with CAF TV.
Gyan is part of the legends invited to grace the 7th edition of the Ongoing CHAN championship in Algeria.

“We are on the right track. Admittedly, there is still a lot of work to be done but there is a lot of work to still be done. When I go to Baraki and see the Nelson Mandela Stadium, I am proud, proud of Algeria and above all proud to be African. All countries should take this example.”

“The development of our football begins with the construction of good infrastructure. Nice high-end stadiums. To return to the Nelson Mandela Stadium, after this CHAN, it will serve the clubs of the city”, he told CAF TV ONLINE.

“It may seem so simple but it is a question of esteem, of respect. When you play in a beautiful stadium, you feel considered, loved and you will see that the difference between the players who play at home and those who play abroad will be thinner and thinner. We will no longer be surprised to see a player who plays in Africa, make great performances in the World Cup”, he added.

Speaking about Ghana’s performance and their shocking quarter finals exit , he had this to say;

“Good! My native Ghana started the competition rather badly but they recovered well against Sudan in their second game. They reached the quarterfinals. I was pleasantly surprised by Madagascar and Angola. Algeria have been incredible. You can feel that they want to win the tournament at home. The level of this competition is very high and we have seen many surprises”, he concluded.
