Former Black Stars captains Andre Ayew and Asamoah Gyan shared a heartwarming moment in the stands during Ghana’s 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against The Gambia.

The two Ghana football legends were both in attendance at the Accra Sports Stadium on Tuesday as the Black Stars took on The Gambia in a crucial Group C encounter.

Before the game got underway, Ayew and Gyan were captured sharing a warm embrace as they reunited at the stadium.

The touching moment between the former captains has attracted attention from Ghanaian football fans, with the pair having shared some of the most memorable moments in the history of the national team.

Gyan, Ghana’s all-time leading scorer, served as captain of the Black Stars for several years before his international career came to an end.

Ayew, meanwhile, succeeded Gyan as Ghana captain and went on to become one of the country's most capped players.

The two were key figures during Ghana’s golden period in international football, including the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa, where the Black Stars reached the quarter-finals.

Their reunion in the stands offered a nostalgic moment for supporters, even as the Black Stars endured another difficult night on the pitch.

Ghana surrendered a two-goal lead to lose 4-2 to The Gambia in a dramatic encounter.
