I'm not distracted by music - Asamoah Gyan

Asamoah Gyan has dismissed fears that his love of music will damage his chances of success in football.

The Sunderland and Ghana striker is heavily involved on the local music scene in his country, featuring in a number of hit songs.

"Many European players play golf in their leisure time," said Gyan. "I choose to record music."

His latest duet with musician Castro - 'Do the Dance' - is climbing up the music charts.
