Coach Kwesi Appiah has rubbished reports that he has stripped off the Black Stars captaincy from Asamoah Gyan.
Multiple reports have emerged that Kwesi Appiah will announce a new leader for the playing body of the Black Stars with Inter Milan midfielder, Kwadwo Asamoah becoming Asamoah Gyan's successor.
However, speaking with reporters at the launch of the J. A Kufour Cup, Coach Appiah has rubbished any such suggestion insisting the Kayserispor forward is still the skipper of the side.
"We have no new captain. Asamoah Gyan remains the captain of the Black Stars.
"Until we announce that we have appointed a new captain, it's unnecessary for people to speculate that we have a new captain.
"This captaincy issue keeps coming out and brings troubles in the team. We want to have our peace.
"Ghanaians should support the team and stop bringing up issues that do not exist," he said.
Atletico Madrid midfielder Thomas Partey has been handed the role on an interim basis but the 25-year-old has downplayed his chances of replacing Asamoah Gyan.
