Published on: 01 September 2020

Forward Jordan Ayew has promised to give his all in the next AFCON and end Ghana's trophy drought in almost 38 years.

Ghana came close to ending the trophy drought in the last decade, Angola 2010 losing to the Pharaohs of Egypt in the finals, and in 2015 Equatorial Guinea/Gabon Ghana lost to the Elephants of Ivory Coast on a penalty shootout.

The Crystal Palace marksman played a part in the 2015 finals where the Black Stars lost to the Ivory Coast under former Chelsea boss Avram Grant after leading the penalty shoot-outs by two goals only to throw away the two-goal lead.

Speaking to Citi Sports the 19/20 Eagles player of the season promised to give his all to help the Black Stars end the trophy drought.

The only thing I can promise is that I’ll give my three hundred or four hundred percent to the nation,”

“I know it’s only one thing and it is the African Cup of Nations, so we will make sure that when we go back to the next AFCON, we will do our best to perform very well and die for the country,” he added.
