Ghana captain Andre Ayew has reaffirmed his commitment to the national team, insisting he is not ready to retire despite uncertainties surrounding his future with the Black Stars.
Ayew, 35, has been a key figure for Ghana for over a decade, following in the footsteps of his father, Abedi Pele.
While he has yet to win a major trophy with the national team, he has experienced notable highs, including deep runs at the Africa Cup of Nations and Ghana’s historic 2010 FIFA World Cup campaign, where the Black Stars came within inches of a semi-final spot.
The forward made his international debut in August 2007 in a friendly against Senegal before earning a starting role at the 2008 AFCON.
Since then, he has remained a vital presence in the squad, featuring in a joint-record eight AFCON tournaments and three World Cups. With 120 caps, he holds Ghana’s all-time appearance record.
Despite not featuring for Ghana in the past year, Ayew remains open to a return, making it clear he has not called time on his international career.
“I love what I’m doing, and I’m not ready to stop,” he said.
His words signal a potential comeback as Ghana prepare for the upcoming 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Chad and Madagascar in March.
