Jordan Ayew is a doubt for Ghana’s upcoming final playoffs of the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Nigeria after testing positive for Covid-19 over the weekend.

Ayew missed Palace’s 4-0 win over Everton in the FA Cup at Selhurst Park on Sunday.

It is unclear if the 30-year-old will recover in time to report to camp for Ghana’s first-leg meeting against Nigeria in the playoff of the qualifiers.

However, he is expected to recover to team up with the rest of his teammates ahead of the return game.

The game is scheduled to be played at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on March 25, 2022.

Black Stars will travel to Abuja for the return leg on March 29, 2022, at the Moshood Abiola Stadium.
