Ghana legend Asamoah Gyan has laid off all rumuors of him hanging his boots anytime soon after signing for Premier League side Legon Cities FC. 

The 34-year-old old has been announced as the Royal's newest arrival after both parties agreed terms.

Gyan is at the twilight of his career, with many expecting him to announce his retirement soon.

But Gyan has agreed a year deal with the mega-rich club which will see him earn $1 million - a record in the local transfer.

The deal which is renewable after a year means Asamoah could play play for some more years.

Meanwhile, as part of the deal, Gyan has asked the Ghana Premier League side to sign teenage sensation Mathew Cudjoe.

Cudjoe played on loan last season at Kotoko but the Porcupine Warriors could not sign him on a permanent deal.

The 34-year-old is returning to the local league, 17 years after leaving Liberty Professionals.

He has gone on to play in Premier League with Sunderland and dominated United Arab Emirates league. The Al Ain striker won the league's golden boot three times.

Gyan has scored 51 goals for the Black Stars since his debut in 2003.
