Ghana captain Asamoah Gyan may not be fit enough to play against Egypt in a routine 2018 World Cup qualifier against Egypt after limping out of training over a suspected thigh injury on Wednesday evening.

The Kayserispor striker will travel to Accra on Thursday to undergo further test to ascertain the severity of the injury.

Gyan, who has battled injuries in the past years, is now a major doubt for the dead-rubber clash at the Cape Coast stadium.

Ghana captain Asamoah Gyan pulled out of Black Stars training this evening in Cape Coast with what looked like a thigh injury. He will undergo tests in Accra tomorrow to determine the extent of injury.

Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah may not risk his star striker with qualification to the 2018 World Cup up in smoke.

The Black Stars will take on the Pharaohs with nothing at stake after the North African secured qualification to the global showpiece last month.
