Asamoah Gyan has failed to honour his promise to me – Coach J.E Sarpong

Veteran Ghanaian trainer Joseph Emmanuel Sarpong said that Asamoah Gyan had promised to purchase him a customized car but had not kept his word.

J.E Sarpong worked with the famed Black Stars striker at Accra Academy’s senior high school, where he assisted him in maximizing his potential.

However, Sarpong says Asamoah Gyan has failed to deliver the car he promised him.

“I was then coaching Dwarfs and he called me to come to his place in Accra, initially, I didn’t want to go but he insisted and I went there. We spoke and even shared some memories during our stay at Accra Academy,” he told Ernest Brew Smith in an interview.

“He recognized that I was still using the same car I was using when I coached him.”

“He promised to buy me a brand new car when he returns to China and even added that he will customize it in my name and pay all the duties on it,” he revealed.

“It’s been years and i don’t know if I will get the car today or in ten years’ time. I don’t blame him entirely but the people around him,” he insisted.

The former Legon Cities striker has been without a club since the end of 2020/22 season but insists that, he hasn’t retired from professional football.

He recently started his coaching course in Wales.
