Kevin-Prince Boateng, a striker for the Black Stars, has expressed sympathy for Jordan Ayew and his brother Andre Dede Ayew following Ghana’s departure from the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations.
Following Ghana’s departure from the AFCON, Andre Dede Ayew and his younger brother, Jordan Ayew, have been targeted.
Many football analysts have faulted the two brothers for their lackluster performance in the competition.
Kevin-Prince Boateng, who endured a similar fate after Ghana’s AFCON exit in 2014, responded to the comments by saying he understands what the Ayew brothers are going through.
“I don’t want to blame someone and is not about blaming someone because I see Jordan and Dede being criticized and I know how it feels to be blamed after a tournament.
“Off course, they could have played better but the tournament has ended and we need to keep going and also try and bring in the best people going forward,” Kevin-Prince Boateng added in the Twitter space interview.
Meanwhile, Andre Dede Ayew will miss Ghana’s World Cup qualifier against Nigeria’s Super Eagles after receiving a red card in Ghana’s last AFCON group game against Comoros.
