Ayew aiming to shine

Ayew: Rising star

Andre Ayew is hoping to be given an opportunity to showcase his talent after starring at the World Cup.

The 20-year-old winger was one of Ghana's standout performers at this summer's showpiece in South Africa.

A number of eye-catching displays have not gone unnoticed and Ayew is now reported to be a target for a number of Europe's top clubs.

Bundesliga giants Schalke and Borussia Dortmund are the latest to have joined the queue of admirers waiting to pounce.

They are hoping that Marseille, Ayew's current employers, can be tempted into a sale as they have used the African ace sparingly over recent years.

Proud

However, the player himself insists he would be more than happy to remain with the reigning Ligue 1 champions, providing they can provide the opportunities he craves.

"I am resting after the World Cup with Ghana and I am proud of what we achieved there," Ayew told skysports.com.

"I missed the quarter-finals (through suspension), but my friends did me proud - we all gave our best.

"On Marseille, I love the club and I have a contract until 2011, so let's wait and see.

"I want to play more football. If I can play at World Cup level, that means I can also do well for Marseille."
