Laryea Kingston questions commitment of the Ayew brother

Laryea Kingston has questioned why the Ayew brothers who claimed were not in good health condition to play for the Black Stars, didn’t join the team to Brazzaville.

Andre Ayew and Jordan Ayew who featured in Ghana’s 1-1 draw against Congo in Kumai in the 2018 FIAF World Cup qualifiers, opted out of the reverse fixture in Brazzaville, over health issues.

The Black Stars in their absence managed to whip Congo 1-5 in Brazzaville on Tuesday and Laryea Kingston who was Andre Ayew’s teammate for the 2008 Africa Cup of Nations has expressed concerns over the Ayew brothers inability to travel with the team.

“In some games Andre Ayew is not 100% fit but he will hide it for him to be feature in the game, i have done it before,” he said on Football Legends Night Show on GH One.

“Asamoah Gyan wasn’t fit, he wasn’t feeling well to play in the return leg but he managed to go with the team, so i expect the deputy captain to be with the team. For him to stay out and let the team go for me it wasn’t the best.”

Kingston believed that after the first leg ended 1-1 in Kumasi Andre and Jordan lost confidence in the team ahead of the reverse fixture.

“Andre and Jordan felt that there was no hope so why should i go. But they have to be committed to every game, even though the game is not important. Andre is the deputy captain and he has to be with the team though they can’t play so for me i think they abandoned the team.”
