Former Ghana international Kwadwo Asamoah has opened up on why he dropped the famous No.10 jersey.

Ahead of the 2008 AFCON in Ghana, Asamoah was going to wear number 20 but Stephen Appiah who was injured requested that Asamoah wears his number in his absence.

So Kwadwo Asamoah who could not say no to the captain accepted the number 10.

He went ahead to play with the 10 jersey in the absence of Appiah but always wanted to go back to his favorite number which is 20.

So he finally dropped it when he was not feeling great in the 10.

Asamoah said he never discussed why he stopped wearing the number 10 with anyone so he was shocked to hear the famous bad dream story.

According to him the 10 was never his favorite but wore it because Appiah asked him to.
