Black Stars forward Jordan Ayew admitted that he has been playing out of position for some time with Ghana’s National Men’s Football Team. He made this admission in his post-game interview after scoring a hat trick in Ghana’s 4-3 victory over the Central African Republic in a 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi.
Against C.A.R., Ayew was deployed as the lead central attacker rather than as a wing forward, a position he had frequently played in previous games. His goals were crucial in mounting a comeback from a 2-1 deficit to clinch the win, earning him significant praise from Black Stars head coach Otto Addo.
Ayew also scored the winning goal in Ghana’s 2-1 win over Mali in a previous World Cup qualifier.
“To be honest, I’ve been playing out of position for quite some time in the national team…but it’s not a problem for me because I just want to play football, but I’ve never complained or anything like that,” Ayew stated.
“God’s time is the best and in life you never have to give up. You just have to be patient, keep on working, and believe in yourself, and things will turn out positive.”
