Gyan, 33, is currently at Turkish club Kayserispor but insists he is not being paid.

According to MyNewsGh.com, the Ghana captain was asked if he had any other accounts in the countries where he has played football.

But the only account he had was one in Turkey that was empty.

Gyan, who has 51 goals in 105 appearances for his country, reportedly said: "My front and back, up and down is that money (£600) you see there."
