JORDAN AYEW NEWS

Joins Leicester City Ayew completed a transfer to Leicester City from Crystal Palace, the club announced.

Impact Ayew made the switch to Leicester on a permanent transfer, as expected. The forward wasn't likely to play a major role for Palace with new signings coming in, so he now moves to Leicester. He should be a depth option there more likely than not, though Jamie Vardy won't be able to lead the line every week, opening more chances for Ayew.

Impact Ayew is set to make a move away from Crystal Palace, with rumors linking him to Leicester City. The forward won't be an option for Saturday's clash, and has likely played his last match for Palace. Matheus Franca is still unavailable, but he could see more minutes long-term with Ayew departing.

Ties career-best Ayew scored four times and assisted seven times during 35 appearances (30 starts.)

Impact Ayew was back to his best with 11 goal contributions in the Premier League while surpassing 2,500 minutes for the second season in a row. New manager Oliver Glasner seemed to get the best out of Ayew, though it's not clear if Ayew will remain in the starting XI when Eberechi Eze and Michael Olise are both fully fit, if both remain at the club.

Assists with lone chance created Ayew had an assist with his lone chance created while taking two shots (one on goal) and creating a chance during Wednesday's 2-0 win over Newcastle United.

Impact Ayew set up Jean Philippe-Mateta in the 55th minute assisting the opening goal of the match. The start was Ayew's first in Palace's last three matches with the assist being his first goal involvement since February.

Only one on goal effort in loss Ayew registered one shot (on goal) and two crosses (none accurate) in Tuesday's 1-0 defeat to AFC Bournemouth.

Impact Ayew was poor Tuesday, he only managed to place one shot at goal and unsurprisingly was subbed after 70 minutes. It has been five games since the striker last found the net for Palace but he did convert two penalties during the recent international break.

Back with starting XI Ayew (hip) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Luton Town.

Impact Ayew has recovered from the hip injury he picked up last week against Tottenham, as he will miss no time after being named to the starting XI. The club will be happy that the forward is avoiding the sidelines, as he is a regular starter and one of their more lethal weapons in the attack, getting the start in 25 of his 26 appearances while notching four goals and six assists.

No injury status Ayew (hip) wasn't mentioned among the injured for Saturday's clash with Luton Town by manager Oliver Glasner.

Impact Ayew came off with a minor hip issue against Tottenham but it appears the injury was minor as originally expected. The forward should be good to go for the starting XI for Saturday's clash, barring a late setback. If fully fit Ayew likely would be an option to go the full 90, as he has more often than not when fit.

Taken off with hip injury Ayew, who subbed off with a hip problem in the 71st minute against Tottenham, could be available versus Luton Town on Saturday. Manager Oliver Glasner told reporters, "He got a hit...

Impact The fact that Ayew seemingly played an extra 15 minutes into the match would seem to indicate it's not a serious injury that will keep him out long-term. In his last six outings (all starts), the forward registered two goals on eight shots (four on target), one assist, 27 crosses (nine accurate) and 11 corners. Even if Ayew doesn't miss any time, he could see his recent corner-taking duties diminished with the return of Eberechi Eze to the squad.

Impact After recording three goal contributions in the past two matches, Ayew came back down to earth Saturday. He recorded four crosses for the eighth time this season and took his side's lone corner of the match. He also drew two fouls and created one chance before being subbed off in the 71st minute due to an apparent injury, the extent of which is unknown.

Quiet day Saturday Ayew registered one shot (one on target) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Saturday's 4-1 defeat to Aston Villa.

Impact Ayew registered a full 90 minutes on Saturday but still wasn't able to get a whole lot going for Palace, putting up a minimal stat line of one shot, a tackle and two crosses. This was now the forward's second straight match starting since returning from AFCON, with his first going a whole lot better, as he registered two shots, four crosses and five tackles against Sheffield on Jan. 30. He continues to be a regular starter for the club, starting in 20 of the 21 contests he has been available for while notching two goals on 34 shots and five assists on 17 chances created this campaign.

Impact Ayew returns after Ghana was unable to secure a victory during the group stage at AFCON despite scoring two goals on three shots and starting each of the matches. In his last three Premier League outings, the forward was similarly productive with one goal on three shots (two on target), two assists and 10 crosses (three accurate).

JANUARY 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Provides assist in win Ayew (not injury related) assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), four crosses (two accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-1 win over Brentford.

Impact Ayew notched his fifth assist of the season in the 14th minute of the match as he helped equalize the game. However, the winger will miss the next month of action as he will participate in AFCON.

JANUARY 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Headed to AFCON Ayew was called up by Ghana for AFCON 2024.

Impact Ayew will miss all of January for AFCON 2024, yet another major absence for this Palace attack. Eberechi Eze being fit once more could paper over the absence somewhat but Ayew will be a substantial loss on the left wing no matter what.

JANUARY 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Totals assist Ayew assisted once to go with three crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Wednesday's 2-1 loss versus Chelsea.

Impact Ayew has recorded a goal and an assist with 13 crosses (two accurate), 12 tackles, and three interceptions in the last five matches. This puts him at four assists on the campaign, which surpasses his career high for a single season.

DECEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Scores lone team goal Ayew scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) and three crosses (zero accurate) in Thursday's 1-1 draw versus Brighton.

Impact Ayew scored the only goal for Crystal Palace to take the win Thursday. It was just his second goal in the last eight matches, totaling an assist on 12 shots (seven on target), 18 crosses (three accurate) and 14 tackles (nine won) in that span.

DECEMBER 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Eligible to return Thursday Ayew has served his one-match ban for a double yellow against Liverpool on Dec. 9 and will now be available for Thursday's clash with Brighton.

Impact Ayew has started all but one of his 16 appearances for the club this season, so he should retake his place in the starting XI. In those contests, the forward has scored just one goal on 28 shots (10 on target) but has added three assists, 41 crosses (five accurate) and three corners.

DECEMBER 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sent off against Reds Ayew was sent off in the second half of Saturday's clash against Liverpool following a straight red card. He finished with one chance created, three crosses and two tackles.

Impact The red card means Ayew will miss three matches at a bare minimum, ruling him out of the contests against Manchester City (Dec. 16), Brighton (Dec. 21) and Chelsea (Dec. 27). His first chance to return would come against Brentford on Dec. 30. This is a huge blow for Palace, as Ayew had started in all but one of his appearances this season. Michael Olise could be in line for a bigger role with Ayew out.

DECEMBER 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Six shots in loss Ayew recorded six shots (three on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Wednesday's 2-0 defeat against AFC Bournemouth.

Impact Ayew was certainly Palace's most threatening attacking option Wednesday but was still unable to find the back of the net despite a season-high in shots. Ayew played the full 90 minutes once again -- he has done so in all but two matches this season -- so while his goals and assists don't come in bunches, his consistency makes him a reliable play in certain formats.

DECEMBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Solid 90-minute effort Ayew had one shot (zero on goal) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Sunday's 1-1 draw against West Ham United.

Impact Ayew was back in the starting group after substituting last game, and he put forth a strong effort, including four tackles won and two interceptions, in a full 90 minute of action. Ayew has won 17 of his 30 tackle attempts, over 14 appearances this season. He also has tried a total of 22 shots but hit the target only seven times.
