Ghana international delighted to be back for West Ham

The Ghanaian attacker has expressed his joy for recovering quickly to join the Hammers

The 26-year-old featured for West Ham for the first time in two months, after his injury return, coming on in their League Cup victory last week Wednesday and was again introduced in the second half over the weekend.

Andre Ayew, whose comeback was quick because he avoided surgery has thanked all the people who contributed to his return to the field earlier than anticipated.

"I was supposed to be out for a very long time but the medical staff worked hard here and also in France," he said.

“I want to thank all the people who helped me get out to play because we worked really, really hard. Now I hope it is just the beginning.

"There were different ideas from different specialists and we took the decision not to have the operation. Now things are going well. Hopefully, I can keep on training and get back to my fitness.”

"I am not a player who had a lot of injuries in the past. It is part of the game. It was tough to accept that in the first game. I had to relax, do the treatment I had to do to get my leg right again."

“It wasn't easy but I knew the sacrifice that was ahead of me if I wasn't going to have the operation. Hopefully, it was a good decision we took.”

“I hope and pray that the next games will be the same so my confidence level will get higher. Every day I am getting stronger from training and I feel better.”
