A moment of leadership and unity was displayed at the Black Stars’ final training session at Estadio de Novembro, as newly appointed captain Jordan Ayew and his deputy Mohammed Kudus shared an encouraging interaction ahead of Ghana’s crucial AFCON qualifier against Angola.
The Training Ground Exchange
During the practice session, Jorsan was seen calling Kudus aside for what appeared to be a strategic conversation. The brief but meaningful exchange, captured on video, showed Kudus nodding in agreement with his new captain, suggesting positive chemistry between the team’s leadership duo.
Leadership Transition
This interaction holds particular significance following recent changes in the team’s captaincy structure. Kudus, who previously led the team against Sudan, has now taken on the role of deputy to Jordan under new coach Otto Addo’s leadership arrangement. The Leicester City forward’s appointment as captain comes at a crucial time for the national team.
Ghana’s situation in the AFCON 2025 qualifiers adds weight to this display of unity:
- The team currently sits at the bottom of their group with 2 points
- A victory against Angola is essential for qualification hopes
- The match kicks off at 19:00 GMT
- A win would lift Ghana to third place, just two points behind Sudan
This show of solidarity between Jordan and Kudus comes at a perfect time as the Black Stars prepare for what could be a defining moment in their AFCON qualification campaign. The team’s leadership appears united in their mission to secure a crucial victory against group leaders Angola, who have already qualified for the tournament.
The harmonious interaction between the two stars sends a positive signal about team cohesion as Ghana faces this must-win situation to keep their AFCON 2025 dreams alive.
