Andre Ayew Tells Former West Ham Director Of Recruitment Tony Henry - We Are Proud Of Ourselves

Swansea City attacker, Andre Ayew has hit back at former West Ham director of recruitment, Tony Henry for questioning the attitude of African players.

Tony Henry was shown the exit door by the Hammers for comments he made claiming that African players always cause mayhem in the dressing room.

Andre who left West Ham on transfer deadline day in January to rejoin Swansea City for £18 million deal has now hit out at Mr Henry claiming Africans bring success to their side insisting African players are very proud of themselves and where they come from.

“I just know that we African players are proud of ourselves, we know where we have come from, and we believe in our football,” said Ayew.

“African players like Didier Drogba and Samuel Eto'o have played at the greatest clubs in the world and done their jobs.

“We have done a lot to get into professional football and African footballers now play for Barcelona, Real Madrid and Chelsea.

“It's an honour to be an African. I am so proud and so happy and I wouldn't change it for anything.”

The Black Stars deputy captain is in line to make his Swansea debut this weekend against Burnley in the Premier League.
