Ghana’s Black Stars captain, Jordan Ayew, has dismissed rumors of tension within the team, describing the players’ relationship as “like brothers.”
Ayew’s comments come after speculation about squad discord following Ghana’s failure to qualify for the 2025 AFCON.
In an interview with Joy Sports, Ayew emphasized that while players may have different close relationships, they all share a strong bond.
“Obviously we are not best friends, because everyone is different and has who they’re closest to.
“But just like a family, the fact that you’re closer to your sister doesn’t mean you don’t love your brother.
“There’s no problem or friction within the team, and I’m yet to see any problem whatsoever. We’re like brothers,” he said.
Jordan will lead the Black Stars against Chad in 2026 World Cup Qualifier on Friday.
