Jordan Ayew joins Leicester City on two-year deal 

Leicester City have completed the signing of experienced Ghanaian forward Jordan Ayew from Crystal Palace.

The 32-year-old has agreed to a two-year deal, subject to FA and Premier League approval.

Ayew, who has represented Ghana at two Fifa World Cups and six Africa Cup of Nations tournaments, brings a wealth of experience to the Foxes’ attack.

He made 212 appearances across all competitions during his six seasons with Crystal Palace, scoring 23 goals and earning multiple accolades, including the club’s Player of the Season and Players’ Player of the Season awards in 2019/20.

Ayew’s career began in Ligue 1 with Marseille, where he made 111 league appearances and scored 14 goals. He later had stints with FC Sochaux and FC Lorient before moving to the Premier League with Aston Villa in 2015. After a successful period with Swansea City, Ayew joined Crystal Palace, initially on loan before securing a permanent move in 2019.

Leicester City manager Steve Cooper has strengthened his attacking options with Ayew’s addition as the Foxes gear up for their upcoming Premier League fixture against Fulham.

Jordan Ayew is expected to link up with his new teammates ahead of the match.
