Former Ghana captain Asamoah Gyan feels lack of proper football structures and concentration on other sports like athletics have slowed down the progress of the game (football) in Kenya.
“Kenyan football is doing alright. Statically I always compare them to Ghana. Ghana is ahead of Kenya when it comes to football and I think they lack the basics,” Gyan told NTV as quoted by Pulse Sports.
“There are a lot of talents here [but] from what we have seen growing up, it seems like Kenya focuses more on athletics than football. And I think we have people here who can play soccer well so when they do not have the support, they give up,” he added.
The Black Stars' all-time top scorer was speaking in Nairobi before he graced the Captain Irene Ndanu Super Cup and Soccer Summit at Nyayo National Stadium on Sunday.
