Andre Ayew has wished his elder brother Ibrahim Ayew well following his appointment as head coach of Gibraltar-based Glacis United's U-23 team.

Ibrahim has taken up the role in a player-coach capacity, with the club expressing delight at securing the services of the experienced former Ghana international.

Reacting to the appointment, Andre took to his Instagram story to congratulate his brother, writing: "Good luck, big [brother]. New chapter."

Ibrahim brings considerable experience of football in Gibraltar, having won the domestic league title on four occasions during his career.

The former midfielder has featured for several clubs, including Belgian side Lierse, Asante Kotoko, Europa, Bruno's Magpies and Lincoln Red Imps.

At international level, he represented Ghana at various youth levels before earning opportunities with the senior national team.

He was part of the Black Stars squad that finished runners-up at the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations in Angola and also featured at the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa, alongside Andre.

Meanwhile, Andre remains without a club after leaving Dutch side NAC Breda at the end of last season.

The former Ghana captain has been in the country visiting clubs and meeting key football stakeholders amid reports linking him with a possible run for the Ghana Football Association presidency.
