Yaw Boateng Gyan debunked assertions that the yet to arrive player has requested from the Ghana Football Association (GFA) the inclusion of his personal physiotherapy in camp. �Kevin-Prince Boateng has not requested for anything during our discussions so I will be much surprised if he does that when he returns,� he said.
