In the wake of Crystal Palace’s triumphant 3-1 victory over Brentford, Jordan Ayew, the talismanic forward, speaks not of personal glory, but fervently emphasizes the collective success of his team.
In a post-game interview, Ayew sheds light on his aspirations for Crystal Palace in this year, fervently placing team triumphs above individual achievements.
Ayew, who played a pivotal role in securing the win with a crucial assist, has not only boosted his tally to five for the 2023/24 season but has also been instrumental in terminating Palace’s disheartening four-game winless streak.
Despite this commendable performance, Ayew’s focus remains unyieldingly on the greater good, a sentiment he made resoundingly clear in his post-match reflections.
The seasoned forward’s commitment to team objectives assumes even greater significance as he gears up for a dual challenge, balancing his responsibilities at Crystal Palace with a forthcoming campaign on the international stage. Ayew finds himself included in the Black Stars squad for the 2023 AFCON in Ivory Coast.
“I don’t really set targets. Me, personally, I always want the team to play well and to win games, and if I can chip in, I’ll be very happy,” he said.
“The most important thing for me in the New Year is good health, my family to have good health and the whole team to have good health. After that, the rest is secondary,” he added.
