Ghana’s favourite striker Jordan Ayew says it’s always a dream to play on the same field with his brother Andre Ayew insisting there’s always happiness when they play together.
The Ayew brothers also played for Ligue 1 side Olympique Marseille, where they won the league cup and supeercup together, a club where their father, Abedi Ayew Pele is worshiped for winning the UEFA Champions League for them.
Speaking to Crystal Palace’s media, Jordan expressed his delight at playing with his elder brother at two World Cups and many other AFCON tournaments.
“Every time I play with my brother there is happiness, because we fulfilled our dreams,” the forward said.
“It was painful to leave the tournament, but we did our best and gave everything to present Ghana in the best way possible.”
He added: “I have a big family, I was raised by grandparents, aunties and uncles. They did a really good job. If I’m here today it’s because of them, they played their part. I always say that it’s important for me to remember where I came from, to thank them for their role in bringing me up. I feel blessed.”
The pair reunited in the Premier League at Swansea City, and have played side-by-side for the Ghana national team since 2012.
