Asamoah Gyan allayed Ghana injury fears by retuning to full scale training with the Black Stars on Friday.

The Al Ain striker came of mid-Thursday's session with a big ice pack wrapped around his right ankle.

Team doctors however say it was a precautionary measure to ensure the knock picked up by the 26-year-old in Ghana's opening Nations Cup game against Botswana does not worsens.

Gyan however fully took part in the final training session ahead of Ghana's second Group D game against Mali on Friday in buoyant mood.

He took part in gruelling exercises and moved very well to indicate his match-fitness to start against the Eagles at the Stade de Franceville.

Captain John Mensah is however still out with a thigh strain and did not take part in the training session.
