Afena-Gyan Will Surely Play For Ghana But At The Right Time – Says Agent

AS Roma youngster forward, Felix Afena-Gyan’s agent, Oliver Arthur has broken his silence over his player failure honor the Black Stars call up.

Recall, earlier this month during the international break, Afena-Gyan failure to turn up for the Black Stars after coach Milovan named him in his 28-man squad for the World Cup Qualifiers aganist Ethiopia and South Africa.

According to the player’s aganet, he says Afena-Gyan will honor the Senior national team call up at the right time.

Arthur, who is the head of Arthur Legacy, in an interview revealed that Gyan failed to show for the games due to development plans Roma has put in place to ensure his development.

He added that Afen-Gyan loves his country and will certainly play for Ghana because he has the country at heart.

“Afena Gyan was happy with the invitation to Black Stars but should he have honoured the invitation, it would have distorted the plans Roma has put in place for his development,” he said on Asempa FM on the Ultimate Sports Show.

“He has been in Europe for barely six months and we did not even dream that his call up to the Black Stars will emerge that early.

“When Afena-Gyan decided not to show, the Ghana Football Association [GFA] was informed and they wrote to Roma and that indicates professionalism.

“I have heard a lot after Afena Gyan turned down the invitation but the truth is that Afena-Gyan will surely play for Ghana in the future because these are the players we want for our national teams,” he added.

Afena-Gyan has netted two goals for Roma in the ongoing Serie A season.
