Ghana midfielder Andre Ayew has hailed the qualities of sensational winger Christian Atsu.
The 20-year-old has earned rave reviews after his man-of-the match performance during Saturday’s African Cup of Nations qualifier against Malawi.

The Marseille winger who was a pale shadow of himself lauded the quality of the exciting winger and tipped him for greatness.
“I want to congratulate all my teammates for a hard-fought victory and hopefully we’ll go to Malawi and ensure qualification,†Ayew said
“Atsu played well and has a great future ahead of him if he continues to play like that,â€
“I was happy for him because he knows how to take on defenders and everyone should watch out for him.â€
