Leicester have signed Ghana winger Jordan Ayew on a two-year contract from Crystal Palace in a deal worth an initial £5m.

Ayew, who has spent the past six years at Palace since initially joining on loan in 2018, will boost the Foxes' attacking options.

He made 212 appearances for Palace, scoring 23 goals, and was a second-half substitute in their 2-1 defeat by Brentford on Sunday.

The 32-year-old - whose fee could rise to £8m including add-ons - joins Oliver Skipp as a new signing, with the midfielder arriving from Tottenham for £20m earlier this week.
