Asamoah Gyan has clarified his comments on his exit from Sunderland saying he has 'no problem' with the English Premier League side.

In a media conference on Tuesday, Gyan had said he had no interest in returning to Sunderland and had not heard from Martin O'Neill, the manager.

However, speaking to The National last night, Gyan wanted to clarify his position.

"My agent called me about the interview. They said I didn't want to go back to Sunderland and I don't like it there.

"The team was good for me. I love the fans and I love the club. They bought me for £13 million (Dh77m) and they did a lot for my career. When I left there the fans were very good to me. I didn't have any negative feelings towards anybody. In football you need to move sometimes." Gyan whose loan move at UAE champions-elect Al Ain expires at the end of the season
