Andre Ayew says representing the Black Stars is daunting and demands so much sacrifice.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Black Stars captain has proven to be a legendary figure in Ghanaian football, recording 120 caps for the national team, underscoring his determination and perseverance.<\/p>\n

Speaking as a guest lecturer during a sports psychology class at the University of Ghana, Ayew reflected on \u2018self-sacrifice\u2019. He explained the pride that comes with wearing the national colors and the sacrifices it demands.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you were this jersey, you know you have something different ahead of you. For my part, the way I was brought up. The national team is so important to my life and my family\u2019s life.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy family is about the game, so when you know you have to wear this jersey for me it\u2019s all about sacrifices, I don\u2019t gain my bread wearing the national team colours. I wear the national team colours with pride.\u201d<\/p>\n

‘We are patriotic’ – Andre Ayew defends Black Stars players amid concerns<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cSo anytime you have the chance to play in the jersey, you have to be able to surpass yourself if you want to stay in people\u2019s minds.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 34-year-old could extend the record of most appearances but his future with the national team remains uncertain given his recent exclusion from the latest squad announcement despite his impressive form with Le Havre.<\/p>\n

Ayew is currently without a club after his contract with Le Havre expired and like in recent years is hoping to seal a new deal with another club as a free agent.<\/p>\n
