Struggling Legon Cities suffer Asamoah Gyan injury setback

Ghana and Legon Cities striker Asamoah Gyan has been ruled out of action for two weeks, club boss Bashir Hayford has revealed.

The 35-year-old was a conspicuous absentee as The Royals slumped to a 2-1 home defeat to Ebusua Dwarfs in the Ghana Premier League on Friday.

His absence is a major blow to struggling Legon, who were hoping to guide the forward back to full fitness to boost their battle in the top-flight.
