Veteran Ghana football administrator, Alhaji Grusah is confident that Andre Ayew still has what it takes to continue playing for the Black Stars.
According to him, if the Qatar-based forward can take good care of himself, then his services are still needed in the national team.
“For those who are asking for Dede’s retirement, I want to ask how old is Cristiano Ronaldo?
“If only Dede can take good care of himself, we still need him,” Alhaji Grusah said in an interview with Akoma FM.
The Black Stars management committee member added, “We can’t go into a tournament without senior players. Ghanaians were angry over his penalty miss, but they soon forgot what he did for us against South Africa and Nigeria in both legs.
“People were just making unnecessary noise about his reporting early at camp, was it wrong as a captain if he reports first at camp? If most of our players were committed and dedicated to the team just as Dede and his brother did for us, Ghana would have gone far.”
At age 33, Andre Ayew appears not ready to stop now. He was in action for Al Sadd SC on Wednesday afternoon and scored to help the team to beat Al Rayan 2-1 in the Qatar Stars League.
