Dede Ayew never campaigned for Black Stars captaincy - Solar Ayew

Former Ghana U-17 star, Solar Ayew has revealed that Andre Ayew has never requested for the Black Stars captain armband.

The issue of Ghana’s captaincy has been an issue since Kayserispor striker, Asamoah Gyan was appointed as the substantive captain of the team.

However, multiple reports have emerged that the former West Ham United attacker who led Ghana’s U-20 side to win the FIFA U-20 World Cup has been championing for the captain armband.

However, Solar says the Swansea City loanee has never crusaded for Black Stars captaincy.

“Andre Ayew has never crusaded for Black Stars captaincy,” he told Asempa.

“I have had series of discussion with Dede Ayew and he has never said he wants the Black Stars armband.

“I believe it will come to him at the right time,” he added.
