Jordan Ayew delivered an exceptional performance for the Black Stars in 2024, emerging as the team’s top scorer with an impressive nine goals. His tally remains unmatched by any other player in the squad, solidifying his role as a key figure for Ghana.
The 32-year-old forward showcased his goal-scoring prowess across various competitions. He netted two goals during the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), added two more in friendlies against Nigeria and Uganda, and contributed four crucial goals in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Mali and the Central African Republic.
Ayew’s standout moment came in the 2025 AFCON qualifiers when he scored a spectacular goal against Angola, further cementing his place as a pivotal player for the national team.
Although 2024 was a challenging year for the Black Stars, Ayew’s consistent performances were a bright spot. His remarkable goal-scoring form made it his best year yet with the national team.
On the club front, Ayew reached significant milestones, scoring his 40th Premier League goal and his 50th goal in English football during the year.
His leadership qualities shone through when he captained the Black Stars in one of their final matches of 2024, underscoring his importance not only to the national team but also to his club, Crystal Palace.
As Ayew continues to excel for both club and country, his contributions remain invaluable to Ghanaian football.
