Gyan already sold to offset the drop in attendance?

Not that the attacker does not give satisfaction to his employers, but simply because the club is experiencing a big drop in revenue from ticket sales and Gyan, among others, could fill the gap is widening every game.

Nian Quinn, president of the Black Cats, has noted in Metro, the Stadium of Light is becoming less popular, because since the beginning of 2011 the average attendance is 35,000 for a capacity of 49,000 seats, a decrease of 10,000 spectators over the budget estimate. "If the club can not bring back fans to the stadium, then we will have to reduce our workforce and our ambitions downwards.

It will also be difficult to continue our investments and players will be sold, "warned Sunderland boss, who cited Asamoah Gyan as one of the first on the list of possible departures. For now, the shortfall is estimated at just over 2 million.
