Being a legend is no guarantee you will become FA president – Gyan receives precious tip from Samuel Eto’o

Published on: 26 April 2022

Ghana great, Asamoah Gyan has disclosed that he has been told by Samuel Eto’o that being a legend only will not guarantee him the Ghana Football Association (GFA) presidency.

Eto’o who is currently president of the Cameroon football association has guided the national team to qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

Disclosing a conversation he had with Samuel Eto’o on a plane, Asamoah Gyan says he gave him tips on how to become an FA President.

“I was on the flight with him. He told me becoming President of the FA is not just something you wake up to. He planned it for years. He said the mere fact that you are a legend won’t guarantee you the seat,” Asamoah Gyan said.

Speaking to Asaase Radio, Asamoah Gyan said while he is unsure if he wants to become GFA president one day, it is something that may happen.

“I don’t know. It might be possible. I haven’t thought about it. There are a lot of people who call me and tell me that I can be FA President one day,” Gyan said.
