Ghana are sweating over the fitness of Andre Ayew ahead of their crucial Group F game against Cameroon.

The Black Stars skipper picked up a knock during their 2-2 stalemate with Benin at the Ismailia Stadium on Tuesday.

The 29-year-old was substituted in the second half as a precautionary measure but was unable to join the team in training at their recovery session yesterday.

A statement by the Ghana FA has confirmed the medical team is monitoring his situation before deciding on his involvement.

“The medical team are monitoring Dede’s condition and will advise the technical team regarding his availability depending on how he responds to treatment.”

Ghana will face the Indomitable Lions on Saturday at 5pm at the Ismailia Stadium whilst Benin lock horns with Guinea Bissau in the other group game later at the same venue.
