Leicester City manager, Steve Cooper, has confirmed Jordan Ayew could feature in this weekend’s Premier League clash against Chelsea, after suffering an injury on international duty.
Ayew, who scored a superb free-kick for Ghana’s Black Stars against Angola, suffered an injury in that game which ruled him out of Ghana’s final qualifier against Niger.
However, Cooper, in his pre match press conference, confirmed that tests revealed the injury wasn’t as bad as feared.
”It’s not a serious injury contrary to some reports.
“The hope is he may be available for the weekend but we're a little bit inconclusive on that for the minute,” Cooper said.
Ayew’s international teammate, Abdul Fatawu, was not as lucky, as his injury on international duty has ruled him out for the season.
Ayew has scored twice for Leicester City in the Premier League this season, including a last minute winner, in matchweek 8, away at Southampton.
