Ghanaian football star and Black Stars captain, Andre Ayew, continues to make waves in Ligue 1 as he emerges as the top-scoring Ghanaian player of the season. The 34-year-old striker showcased his prowess once again over the weekend, netting his fifth league goal for Le Havre in a crucial match against Racing Strasbourg.
Ayew’s decisive goal in the 96th minute sealed a vital 3-1 victory for Le Havre, lifting them three points clear of the relegation zone. This remarkable feat solidifies his position as the leading Ghanaian scorer in the French topflight this season, surpassing Ernest Nuamah, who trails with three goals.
Joining Le Havre as a free agent in November, Ayew has swiftly established himself as a key player for the team. With 18 appearances across all competitions, he has already contributed six goals, including five in the league and one in the French Cup.
In March, Ayew achieved a significant milestone by surpassing the 50-goal mark in Ligue 1, underlining his enduring impact and goal-scoring prowess at the highest level of French football.
Away from the pitch, Ayew recently addressed the challenges faced by the Black Stars, urging for calm amidst disappointing results. Speaking on “Chasing Gold with Nana Aba,” he emphasized the importance of learning from both successes and setbacks, while reaffirming his commitment to making Ghana proud on the international stage.
Despite his short-term contract with Le Havre, speculation looms over the possibility of an extension, given Ayew’s stellar performance and invaluable contributions to the team’s success. As fans eagerly await developments, Ayew’s continued excellence serves as a source of inspiration for aspiring footballers and a testament to the enduring legacy of Ghanaian talent on the global stage.
