He went there and made a massive impact on the whole of the Gulf. Looking at all that other players have done I got to know there was an opportunity there and I had to take it and now things are going well.”

Ayew who is the captain of the Black Stars made a move from Swansea City in 2021 to the Qatari club and was their top scorer in the Qatar Stars League with 15 goals despite missing some games due to AFCON 2021 tournament in Cameroon.
