The Ghana stars took to social media to mourn the passing away of their former international teammate

Ghana internationals Asamoah Gyan, Andre Ayew and Jordan Ayew have paid tribute to the late Junior Agogo.

Agogo passed away on Thursday at the age of 40 after he had also battled with a stroke four years ago.

The former Nottingham Forest and Bristol Rovers star played 27 games for Ghana with 11 goals to his credit.

He was an outstanding performer for the Black Stars at the 2008 Africa Cup of Nations where he scored three goals in six games.
