You don&#8217;t do that. Kudus is a very good player, but you need to be patient and allow his time to come before you give him the captaincy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you do it at the right time, you will feel the impact and he will feel well. The confusion in the team takes its root from all those things and it&#8217;s the major problem we must tackle. We must look at the captaincy issue,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>In the aftermath of the first leg of Ghana\u2019s doubleheader against Sudan in the 2025 AFCON qualifiers, Jordan Ayew was spotted expressing frustrations during a conversation with Sudan\u2019s Ghanaian coach, Kwasi Appiah, and it emerged that Jordan Ayew was venting his anger over the decision to bypass him for the captaincy role.<\/p>\n<p>According to Dan Kwaku Yeboah of Peace FM, Jordan Ayew was not happy with the development and made it known to Kwasi Appiah.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;One of his (Jordan Ayew&#8217;s) concerns was that they told him he would captain the team. But he was not informed that the captaincy was being handed to Kudus. Kwasi Appiah was asked to speak to him because he was angry,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p><b>Watch the latest edition of Weekend Sports Recap below:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><div class=\"youtube-embed\" data-video_id=\"0tr8bcvw47Y\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Weekend Sports Recap:  Performance of Ghanaian players abroad and the Ghana Premier League\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0tr8bcvw47Y?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>EK<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former Black Stars striker, Prince Tagoe Former Black Stars striker, Prince Tagoe, has blamed the alleged disunity in the team on the failure of coach Otto Addo and the management committee to ensure a smooth transition of the captaincy role.
