Asamoah Gyan’s new lawyers have already started work, clarifying that the court case against Gifty Gyan who met Gyan in 2002 when he was with Liberty Professionals, cohabited and married in 2013, is not a divorce proceeding, but annulment.

“There are two ways to legally end a marriage – annulment and divorce. An annulment is a legal procedure which cancels a marriage between a man and a woman. Annulling a marriage is as though it is completely erased – legally, it declares that the marriage never technically existed and was never valid. A divorce, or legal dissolution of a marriage, is the ending of a valid marriage between a man and a woman returning both parties to single status with the ability to remarry,” the lawyers reportedly stated.

Meanwhile, in addition to annulling their marriage Gyan has also reported demanded DNA tests to be carried out on all three children he has with Gifty to determine their paternity.
