Football legend and Ghana all-time leading goal scorer Asamoah Gyan took center stage in Brooklyn, New York, on March 19, 2026, to officially represent Ghana at PUMA’s high-energy reveal of the 2026 FIFA World Cup kits.
Held at the iconic Domino Square, the event transformed a traditional jersey launch into a vibrant street festival, blending sports, music, and Ghanaian culture.
Gyan’s presence served as a powerful bridge between the Black Stars' storied past and their upcoming campaign in North America, where the team is set to face England, Croatia, and Panama in Group L.
The ‘Baby Jet’ was joined by an elite roster of international football icons, including Portugal’s Ricardo Quaresma and Senegal’s El Hadji Diouf.
Together, these legends oversaw a unique 4v4 tournament organized by NYC Footy, which allowed local players to test the new kits in a competitive environment.

The atmosphere was further electrified by a live performance from Ghanaian music sensation Black Sherif, who appeared alongside Black Queens forward Freda Ayisi to celebrate the intersection of African sport and global lifestyle.
During the unveiling, Gyan expressed strong confidence in the new designs, which feature a white home jersey accented with Adinkra symbols and a bold gold-yellow away kit honoring Ghana’s ‘Gold Coast’ heritage.
Addressing the upcoming tournament, Gyan acknowledged the difficulty of facing top-tier opponents like England but remained optimistic about the Black Stars' chances when they kick off their campaign against Panama in Toronto on June 17.
The new collection, which utilizes PUMA’s ULTRAWEAVE technology, is scheduled to go on sale globally on March 24, 2026, retailing for approximately GH₵1,600.
