The Ghanaian national team is fervently aiming to launch their journey to the 2026 Mundial with a resounding performance against the formidable Barea in this crucial qualifying encounter. On Friday, all eyes will be on Ayew as he is expected to take the helm, earning a starting spot ahead of his elder brother and current captain, Andre Ayew. The absence of deputy captain Thomas Teye Partey, sidelined due to injury, further amplifies the responsibility resting on Jordan Ayew's shoulders. With Richard Ofori, the second deputy skipper, also not in the starting lineup, this solidifies Ayew's position as the frontrunner for the captaincy during the showdown with Madagascar.
