It’s time for Ayew brothers to leave the Black Stars – Kofi Badu

Kofi Badu, a former Ghanaian and Asante Kotoko player, has suggested that Crystal Palace attacker Jordan Ayew and Al Sadd playmaker Andre Ayew should no longer be considered for the national squad.

In a phone interview with Kessben FM, the Kotoko veteran surprisingly stated that if the Ayew Brothers’ father, Abedi Ayew Pele, was not their father, he would have asked them to quit the Black Stars squad long ago.

Kofi Badu believes it is past time for other players to flourish for Ghana’s senior national football team, the Black Stars.

“If Jordan and Dede Ayew were not the sons of Abedi Pele, Abedi Pele would have long called for them to be out of black stars.

“Let’s say the truth. It’s obvious. They have played the black stars for quite a long time and it’s time for them to leave,” he said.

The brothers are currently with the Black Stars preparing for Afcon 2023 qualifiers and Ghana’s pre-World Cup friendly games.

Jordan Ayew scored Ghana’s only goal in the 4-1 defeat to Japan Friday morning in the Kirin Cup.
