Leicester City’s shock eye move for Jordan Ayew

However, the Ghana international found game time hard to come by towards the end of last season when manager Roy Hodgson was replaced by Oliver Glasner.

The 32-year-old could be reunited with compatriot Abdul Fatawu Issahaku at Leicester, who are short of options up front following the departures of Kelechi Iheanacho and Marc Albrighton.

According to The Sun, Ayew is currently attracting interest from clubs in the Saudi Pro League, but Leicester are keeping a close eye on his situation.

Ayew had a decent Premier League campaign last season where he scored four goals for Crystal Palace.

The former Aston Villa and Swansea City forward also contributed eight assists in all competitions, seven of which came in the Premier League.

Although his playing time was drastically reduced after Hodgson was replaced by Glasner as manager, he still finished the season as the Ghanaian player with the second most assists in the English topflight, one behind West Ham United’s Mohammed Kudus, who had eight assists in the Premier League.

He came off the bench to score the winner against the Eagles in Bamako and also scored a sensational hat-trick as the Black Stars came from behind to beat CAR 4-3 in Kumasi.
