Black Stars captain Andre Ayew has joined Qatari team Al Sadd in a rush deal.
This move is a huge shock as the 31-year-old has been linked to a number of clubs in Europe after leaving Swansea City.
The former Marseilles had a fantastic season at Swansea last season that led them to a playoff spot for promotion to the Premier League.
Although the club was unable to advance, Andre left the club with his head held high when his contract expired.
