Andre Ayew backs African nations to excel at FIFA U-20 World Cup in Argentina
Ghana captain Andre Ayew has opened up on the chances of African nations ahead of the U-20 World Cup tournament in Argentina.
The tournament which has been scheduled to kick off on May 20 in the South American country will have four African nations, namely Senegal, the Gambia, Tunisia and Nigeria.
And Ayew, who led Ghana to clinch the covetous trophy in 2009 has backed the African countries to excel at the tournament.
“When it comes to football, the African continent is united, which is a blessing. Senegal are in excellent form – they’re African champions and have some real "cracks" in their team. As for the Gambia, I greatly admire the work their federation is doing. We witnessed a very strong Gambia side at the last AFCON, and I know that their youth teams are formidable”
“Without much fuss, Tunisia have assembled a tenacious side, while Nigeria never show up at an underage World Cup without aspirations of a podium finish. May the best team win and bring honour to the continent!” he added.
