Jordan Ayew says he "believes in destiny" after being named captain of Ghana for this month's 2026 Fifa World Cup qualifiers.
The Leicester City forward will lead the Black Stars under a revamped national team structure which includes Winfried Schafer as technical advisor of the Ghana Football Association.
Football runs deep in the Ayew family, with both Jordan's father Abedi Pele and brother Andre Ayew having previously captained the four-time continental champions.
Jordan Ayew feels "honoured" and "proud" to continue that legacy.
"It’s just something that was written in the stars," he told BBC Sport Africa.
