Former Ghana captain Asamoah Gyan has announced plans to support sports development and nurture young talent in Ghana through his foundations and initiatives.
Gyan aims to establish sports academies and training centres in various regions across the country after quitting politics.
In addition to infrastructure, Gyan plans to introduce mentorship programs to aid in the development of young athletes.
“Through the Asamoah Gyan Foundation, the Moah Green Foundation, and the All-Regional Games, we will build sports academies, training centres, and mentorship programs that nurture young talent in all sports. More than that, we’ll emphasize education, character, and life skills to prepare our youth for success beyond the field,” a statement released on September 11, 2024, read.
Gyan highlighted that the initiative is aimed at improving the lives of vulnerable individuals, helping them unlock their potential in sports.
“I want every young person, no matter their background, to have that same opportunity to realize their greatness. This mission is about hope and opening doors for those who feel left behind, giving them the belief that their dreams are possible,” he added.
