Jordan Ayew’s transfer from Crystal Palace to Leicester City has been given another layer of confirmation with Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner all but confirming the veteran Ghanaian forward’s move.

Ayew’s Leicester deal is reportedly a two year contract with an option to extend by a year and comes on the back of Leicester’s initial offer of four million pounds.
“Talking about tomorrow, Joachim [Andersen] won’t be available. Jordan Ayew is the same” Glasner said. Joachim Andersen is also set for a move to Fulham.
Jordan Ayew’s past relationship with Leicester manager Steve Cooper is reportedly a major reason behind Ayew’s imminent move to The Foxes.
Fellow Black Stars player Abdul Fatawu Issahaku is on Leicester’s roster and featured in his debut English Premier League game in Leicester’s 1-1 draw with Tottenham Hotspurs.
