Part of his statement read: "As an active footballer yet to retire, I have been in the team since 2003 and have played with some members of the technical team who were my seniors. Through such periods, they were no times substantive captians were part of a team in a tournament and had to surrender their captaincy to other players and served in different capacities.

"I also wish to retire from the national team permanently."

Gyan who has been with the Black Stars for 16 years netted 51 goals in 106 international appearances.
