Black Stars head coach, Otto Addo, openly acknowledges Jordan Ayew’s desire to have his brother, Andre Ayew, alongside him in the team’s camp.
This revelation follows Otto’s controversial decision to exclude Andre from the 26-man squad for the June qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup.
The omission of Andre has sparked widespread debate, particularly due to his impressive form displayed during the just-concluded season with Le Havre, where he scored six goals in 12 starts.
Following Ghana’s thrilling 4-3 victory over the Central African Republic on Monday, Jordan Ayew was questioned about his brother’s absence in the team.
However, it was Otto Addo who responded to the inquiry, stating, “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.”
“Maybe I’m not there anymore. We don’t know. We don’t know what happens.”
