Asamoah Gyan’s return to Ghana was anything but quiet, as chaos erupted at the Kotoka International Airport upon his arrival on Wednesday, March 26.
The former Black Stars captain was met by a swarm of eager airport staff, both male and female, making it nearly impossible for him to exit the premises smoothly.
A viral video circulating on social media, sighted by YEN.com.gh, captured the moment when the legendary Ghanaian striker, known for his generosity, was mobbed by staff hoping for a token of appreciation.
True to his reputation, the 39-year-old shared cedi notes of various denominations as the excited crowd reached out, eager to receive a gesture from Ghana’s all-time top scorer.
Beyond his philanthropy, Gyan has remained an influential figure within the national team setup, playing an integral role in Ghana’s recent back-to-back victories in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
Despite hanging up his boots, the former Sunderland and Rennes forward has continued to offer mentorship, guiding the next generation of Black Stars players.
In the build-up to the crucial qualifiers, he was seen engaging with key squad members, including Mohammed Kudus and Jordan Ayew, ahead of the home clash against Chad.
His involvement extended beyond training sessions, as he also visited the team’s hotel before the Madagascar fixture, offering words of encouragement and motivation.
