Black Stars midfielder Emmanuel Agyemang-Badu has sent a speedy recovery message to his international team-mate Andre Ayew after the winger went under the knife on Monday. The 23-year-old successfully underwent surgery on Monday morning to help him recover from a knee injury he suffered during Ghana�s 2014 World Cup qualifying play-off against Egypt in Cairo last week. Andre is set to spend the next eight weeks on the sidelines before he can return to playing and Agyemang-Badu has wished him well as he begins his rehab. �Get Well soon my brother Andre Ayew,� the Udinese star tweeted. �I suffered the same kind of injury last season and I know how it feels like. I wish Andre well and hope he gets back soonest,� he added. Badu and Andre, both members of the victorious 2009 Ghana U20 side, played influential roles in Ghana�s qualification to the Brazil 2014 World Cup. Andre�s injury has sparked anger at Marseille as the French club is demanding $1 million as compensation from FIFA for the Liverpool-target�s injury.
