“I was happy when I received the call. It was an unexpected call, so when they asked me Kotoko is interested in me I was very excited,” Gyau said.
He disclosed that it was former Kotoko and Ghana coach James Kwesi Appiah who first contacted him, triggering excitement within his family.
“James Kwesi Appiah called me first. I told my father before telling my mum. They were happy, but my father couldn’t believe it.”
Despite his lofty goals, the young midfielder did not forget to thank the club that nurtured him.
“I thank the Berekum Chelsea fans for the support they’ve given me. They used to gift me money and have also done a lot more for me.”
