Ayew brothers pull out of USA/Mexico friendlies-Report

Ghanaian duo Andre Ayew and Jordan Ayew could be excused from the Black Stars international friendly matches againsgt Mexico and the USA.

Information reaching Ghanasportsonline.com indicates the two brothers have asked for permission to be exempted from the squad which is expected to depart on Friday.

Both players are reportedly pulling out of the game to enable them have enough rest after a tedious English Premier League season with their Clubs.

Their exclusion could also pave way for some players to have the opportunity to justify themselves in the team.

The two players were involved in Ghana’s 5-0 win over Ethiopia in an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier at the Babayara Sports Stadium last Sunday.

Coach Kwesi Appiah will use the two games as a build-up for the team’s World Cup qualifier against Congo later this year.
