Ghana attacker Jordan Ayew has revealed the truth behind his departure from Marseille to Lorient in the summer.
The 23-year old completed a permanent transfer to Lorient, after a disappointing spell with the current leaders of the Ligue 1, which saw him feature for a number of other clubs on loan.
"We all know what happened in Marseille. I did not want to go back. The president wanted to keep me but I did not want to stay", Jordan told France Football.
"I know that if I was patient, I would have played in Marseille. But that's because I was told some things that did not suit me, so I left."
"It's not that I'm someone impatient, but I do not like being taken for a fool, that's all. It was me who did not want to stay. I regret nothing."
Jordan has been called up by Maxwell Konadu for Ghana's AFCON qualifier double header against Uganda and Togo.
