The Serbian has refused to shed light on his squad that will face the Warriors in the make or break fixture on Tuesday

Ghana coach Milovan Rajevac has refused to throw light on whether striker Jordan Ayew will start or be on the bench against Zimbabwe in the 2022 Fifa World Cup qualifiers on Tuesday.

A lot of Ghanaians have consistently criticised the Crystal Palace striker following his poor run of form for club and country.

The 30-year-old has failed to score in his last 47 games for club and country. However, he was able to provide an assist for Ghana’s opening goal against Zimbabwe in the first leg at Cape Coast Sports Stadium last weekend.

Milovan was tight-lipped whether he will start Jordan Ayew or not against Zimbabwe as the Crystal Palace striker is yet to score in almost fifty games for club and country.

“I never reveal the starting line up the day before the match because this is not the way I do my work but the goal scorers and attackers often come to crisis and in this circumstances they are trying to overcome the problem and start scoring to make their performance better,” Milovan said.

“We are here and we talk to him. He feels the support he gets from everybody. Whether he starts or comes as a substitute later in the game, we count on all of our players. As I always say, it is important to start the match in an appropriate way and to finish it in the right way,” he added.

Ayew will be battling for a starting place with Joel Fameyeh and Benjamin Tetteh

The kick off time of the game has been slated for 15h00 GMT and 3pm local time.

In the other group game, South Africa who lead Group G with seven points will host Ethiopia at the Soccer City Sports Stadium in Johannesburg on Tuesday.
