Olympique Marseille ace Jordan Ayew will miss Ghana’s Under-23 return leg of the All Africa Games qualifier against Nigeria, GHANAsoccernet.com understands.

The promising striker left Accra on Monday night to join his club side who are set to begin pre-season.

Also David Addy, William Owusu-Acheampong and Richmond Boakye Yiadom have been recalled by their respective European sides.

The players have been recalled by their clubs ahead of the start of the new season.

They will be replaced by Sadick Adams, Abeiku Quansah, Malik Akowuah and petit attacker Latif Salifu.

“We know some player are likely to miss the match so we have called up these players as a back-up and prepare for this major assignment,” head coach Akwasi Appiah told GHANAsoccernet.com

The team will resume camping on Wednesday.
