Ghanaian international footballer, Asamoah Gyan has declared bankruptcy with just Ghanaian Cedis 4000, equivalent of N300,533, balance in his bank account.
According to a report by MyNewsGh, Gyan declared the balance sum in a bank statement.
The money is lodged in a National Investment Bank Account showing only Ghanaian ¢4000.
According to the source, Gyan said, “My front and back, up and down is that money (GH¢4000) you see there.”
MyNewsGh reported that when he was asked about any account overseas, in Europe, Asia or elsewhere he plied his footballing trade, Gyan submitted a bank account from Turkey that has zero balance as proof he has truly not been paid for several months.
Gyan and his estranged wife, Gifty, have been involved in a bitter divorce battle and he is seeking a DNA test to determine the paternity of their three children.
Gifty Gyan met Asamoah Gyan in 2002 and married him in 2013 after they had dated for 11 years. She got pregnant in 2005 and gave birth to the player’s firstborn Frederick Asamoah Gyan.
There are insinuations, however, that the Black Stars’ Skipper mischievously claimed he is broke and unable to foot the cost of the Business class travel of his wife and three children owing to the terms and conditions of the divorce.
