Ghanaian defender Edwin Gyimah is in danger of missing-out on the 2017 AFCON after he was involved in an accident in the early hours of Boxing Day at Obuasi.
Footyghana.com reports that the accident occurred around 3am when the Hyundai Sonata Saloon car Gyimah was driving himself rammed into a taxi which led to the serious injuries.
Gyimah sustained injuries in what many described as a near fatal accident which has left his AFCON 2017 participation in jeopardy.
Pictures emerged of what was claimed to be Gyimah's car after the incident, with the front-end damaged and the bonnet completely destroyed.
The head on collision happened on the stretch between the AGA school and waterworks (not far from Sam Jonah school) in Obuasi.
Gyimah suffered cuts and a female friend who was in his car had to be rushed to the AGA Health Foundation Hospital in the Obuasi and received stitches on cuts sustained.
But the Ghana international, according to reports, headed for his hotel in a taxi instead of receiving immediate medical attention.
