Yakubu Abdul Salam, the newly appointed president of New Edubiase, has voiced his strong belief that Andre Ayew deserves another opportunity with the Black Stars. Salam emphasized Ayew’s unwavering commitment and invaluable experience, which he feels would significantly benefit the Ghanaian national team.
“Andre Ayew has earned another chance with the Black Stars. We all know his dedication to the national team, and even if he’s not on the scoresheet, he has the ability to assist his teammates,” Salam remarked.
The 34-year-old forward has continued to deliver strong performances in Europe, particularly with Le Havre in France’s Ligue 1. This season, Ayew has scored four goals and provided one assist, proving to be an integral part of his team’s efforts to avoid relegation. His leadership and experience on the field have played a crucial role in Le Havre’s ongoing battle for survival in the league.
Despite being 34, Ayew remains one of Ghana’s most experienced and influential players, with a track record of success both internationally and domestically. His ability to contribute in various aspects of the game, from scoring goals to creating opportunities for others, is a testament to his quality and understanding of the game. Salam’s comments come as part of a broader call to bring back experienced players like Ayew to help guide Ghana in their upcoming World Cup qualification campaign.
Ayew’s potential return to the Black Stars would bring a wealth of experience to the team, and many believe his leadership could prove vital as Ghana aims to secure a spot in the 2026 World Cup.
