"Its Not Easy Playing At This Time Of The Year"-Andre Ayew

Ghanaian international Andre Ayew says playing at this time of the year is strange to him and his brother, but they are coping quite well.

The Ayew brothers have played in the French Ligue 1 league throughout their young careers, playing for Olympic Marseille and other Clubs in France.

Both players joined the Barclays Premier League in the summer and have been very impressive for their respective Clubs, scoring well over five goals each.

Jordan signed for Aston Villa whilst his senior brother joined Swansea City and they both have been an integral part of their team’s activities season long.

Coming from a league that usually goes on break during the Christmas festivities, the Ayew brothers say they are gradually adjusting to life in the Premiership, especially with the series of matches played at this time of the year.

“To me, it’s not a worry because I knew this before coming here and so did Jordan. We are adjusting and have no problem with playing these days”, Andre mentioned.
