Dede unhappy with lack of support for Black Stars

Andre Ayew is unhappy with the lack of interest in Black Stars these days, especially during matches.

The senior national team has lost its national adulation since the fiasco in Brazil about two years ago.

And Ayew, who will lead the team to Mauritius on Sunday for the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier in the absence of skipper Asamoah Gyan, says is being difficult for the team since the world cup disaster.

“This past one and a half year its been difficult between the Black Stars and fans and we have to be honest,” Ayew told the media.

“For me as a leader and with other leaders and my colleagues its very painful.”
“When we played against Mozambique the stadium wasn’t full but when Hearts of Oak played Kotoko i was in France but i saw the stadium was full its painful.
“I have to be honest Ghanaians want us to win and we have been wining but we still don’t feel the support.

“There are different issues that are true or false but i am just pleading that we all put things behind us and move on and that they should support us in prayers.”

Ghana needs a point to book qualification ticket to Gabon 2017.
