Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Black Stars head coach, Otto Addo, has admitted that Jordan Ayew would want his brother Andre next to him when the team is in camp.
Otto controversially left out Andre from his 26-man squad for the June qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup.
The decision has since sparked massive debate considering the form of the 34-year-old for Le Havre in the just-concluded season; scoring six goals in 12 starts.
After Ghana’s 4-3 win over the Central African Republic on Monday, Jordan Ayew was asked about the absence of his brother in the team, instead, Otto Addo opted to answer the question.
“Let me talk for Jordan. It’s his brother. Sure, he wants him to be next to him, but what will happen: it’s my decision, it’s our coaching staff’s decision. As a brother, he would like him to be next to him.
“But, I have a responsibility for the national team, for Ghana, and I have to decide what is best for the team, and who knows? Maybe he’s there, maybe not, but I don’t know.
“So, maybe I’m not there anymore. We don’t know. We don’t know what happens.”
Jordan Ayew scored the winning goals in the two games against Mali and the Central African Republic.
