A Ghana Football Association (GFA) Executive Member, Frederick Acheampong, has indicated his openness to a potential return of Andre Dede Ayew to Ghana’s National Men’s Football Team, the Black Stars.
He made this indication via an interview with Akoma FM as the Black Stars prepare to take on Chad and Madagascar on March 21 and 24 respectively in 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
Dede Ayew who has served as Black Stars captain for several years prior to his absence in recent Black Stars games is in the running to be called up by Black Stars head coach Otto Addo for the upcoming games.
“Ayew is one of the Black Stars’ most committed (players). If he is playing top-level football in France and the coach needs him, why not? He has always shown commitment whenever given the opportunity” Acheampong said.
35 year old Ayew has scored four goals and has an assist in 17 French Ligue 1 games in the 2024-2025 season including bagging a goal and an assist in Le Havre AC’s crucial 4-3 win over RC Lens.
The win moved Le Havre to 16th place and in contention to avoid relegation; last season, Ayew scored crucial goals to keep The Mariners in the league.
