Grant: Ayew won’t be tired against PSG?

Ghana coach Avram Grant does not believe fielding Andre Ayew in today’s friendly game against Mali will make the Olympic Marseille winger tired for the crucial Ligue 1 clash against PSG on Sunday.

There are fears that the 25-year-old, whose only win as captain of the Black Stars was when Ghana beat Equatorial Guinea 3-0 in the Africa Cup of Nations semi-final, will be drained by Sunday.

“They are playing on Sunday. We are playing on Tuesday. Five days is enough time to rest and recover,” the ex-Chelsea boss told the media.

“It depends on the player, but we will see how the player is and I will analyze the situation and take a decision. But, I think five days is enough time to recover and be well.”

Third place Marseille, who have 57 points, will topple PSG and seize the top spot on the Ligue 1 table if they are able to win at the Stade Velodrome this weekend.
