New Black Stars captain Jordan Ayew has arrived in Ghana and is set to join the rest of the squad in preparation for Ghana’s doubleheader in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
The skipper arrived late on Monday, March 17, 2025, and is expected to join the squad at the team’s hotel in Accra.
The Leicester City forward is set to lead the team as the main captain under the new structure in the game against Chad.
He is Ghana’s top scorer in the qualifiers with four goals, sitting just one goal behind Egypt’s duo, Trezeguet and Mohamed Salah, who are tied on five goals each.
Ayew’s arrival, along with Inaki Williams, Jerry Afriyie, and Lawrence Agyekum, who also joined on Monday, takes the number of available players to 13, with 10 yet to report.
The team will hold their second training session on Tuesday, but unlike the first session, it will not be open to the public.
