Jordan Ayew is set to carry Ghana’s hopes on his shoulders once again as the Black Stars gear up for their defining fixtures in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against the Central African Republic and Comoros.

The Leicester City striker, son of Ghanaian football royalty Abedi “Pele” Ayew, has been the heartbeat of Otto Addo’s attack throughout the qualification campaign. With six goals to his name, Ayew stands as Ghana’s top scorer and one of the most influential players in Africa’s qualifying series, blending leadership with a clinical edge that has reignited belief in the Black Stars’ World Cup dream.

Since his summer move from Crystal Palace to Leicester, Ayew has rediscovered his spark, bringing the same hunger and work rate that have defined his decade-long international career. His recent equalizer in the 1–1 draw with Chad in Ndjamena typified his commitment and composure under pressure, qualities that have made him indispensable to the national team setup.

Ghana currently leads Group I with 19 points, three ahead of nearest challengers Madagascar. With only two matches left, the four-time African champions know that victory in both fixtures would seal a fifth World Cup appearance. The first test comes against the Central African Republic on Thursday, followed by a home finale against the Comoros in Accra on Sunday, October 12, 2025.

For Ayew, these games carry more than just qualification stakes, they represent another chance to etch his name deeper into Ghana’s football folklore. Having worn the national colours since 2010, the 33-year-old forward has featured in the 2014 World Cup and several AFCON campaigns, earning a reputation for his tireless play and knack for delivering in crucial moments.

As the nation rallies behind the team, all eyes will be on Ayew to inspire one last push. His experience, drive, and recent form suggest he remains the man for the moment, a bridge between Ghana’s storied past and its World Cup ambitions.

Should he lead the Stars back to the grand stage in North America, Ayew would not only add another proud chapter to his family’s legacy but also cement his status as one of Ghana’s most enduring icons.
