Ghana international and 2009 Fifa U-20 World Cup winner Emmanuel Agyemang-Badu has backed new Black Stars captain Andre Ayew to lead the team to glory at the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt.
Ten years after captaining the U-20s to World Cup success in Egypt, Ayew is set to lead another batch of players, this time around the senior team, to the North African nation.
Udinese midfielder Badu, who played at the 2010, 2012, 2013, 2015 and 2017 Afcons, is widely remembered for converting the winning penalty as Ghana beat Brazil in a shootout to clinch the U-20 World Cup.
