The former Sunderland striker is unhappy by the 27-man roster announced for the double-header <\/p>\n

<\/head><\/p>\n

Legendary Ghana striker Asamoah Gyan was unimpressed by Otto Addo\u2019s first squad as Black Stars coach, taking to social media to lash out at team officials for snubbing in-form Anderlecht midfielder Majeed Ashimeru.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

After weeks of hold-up, Ghana, on Tuesday, announced a 27-man roster for their upcoming 2022 World Cup qualifying play-off fixtures, starting on Friday.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

While the selection featured Arsenal midfielder Thomas Teye Partey, Ajax playmaker Mohammed Kudus, Crystal Palace striker Jordan Ayew and Leicester City defender Daniel Amartey, there was no place for Ashimeru, who has seemingly discovered his spark at the turn of the New Year, having initially struggled following a transfer to Anderlecht from Austrian giants Red Bull Salzburg. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis guy Majeed Ashimeru is the best midfielder in Ghana, after Thomas Partey, PERIOD. I have kept quiet on this but this nonsense must stop. Smh,\u201d an obviously incensed Gyan wrote in a .<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The post, however, generated criticism on the striker as many questioned the public nature of such an outburst and his choice of words.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

It was not long before the striker, who last featured for the Black Stars at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations tournament in Egypt, pulled down the tweet, going on to render an apology.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

He posted: \u201cI still insist that Ashimeru deserves to be in this current Black Stars BUT am sorry for using the word \u2018Nonsense\u2019 in my statement, so I unreservedly withdraw that word, I was carried by my emotions. Go Ghana!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
