Sunderland striker Asamoah Gyan could be set to stay with United Arab Emirates club Al-Ain
Asamoah Gyan's move to the United Arab Emirates could become permanent.
AL-AIN coach Cosmin Olaroiu is confident Sunderland striker Asamoah Gyan will convert his loan deal into a permanent move during the summer.
The Black Cats hitman has proved a success in the Middle East since joining the United Arab Emirates side last September – his 10 goals helping Al-Ain to the top of their domestic league.
Al-Ain are keen to keep Gyan when his season-long loan expires and will attempt to agree a permanent switch with Sunderland at the end of the campaign.
Olaroiu said: “If you ask me for my opinion if Gyan wants to stay in Al-Ain, it is yes, but it is left for him to decide if he want to stay or not.
“From what I know about him and the way he acts, I know he feels good about this place.
“He is getting on well with the team, with us, the club management and with everybody around him.”
