Leicester City manager Steve Cooper has confirmed that Ghanaian forward Jordan Ayew is likely to be available for selection against Chelsea in the Premier League on Saturday.
Ayew picked up a knock in Ghana’s African Cup of Nations qualifier fixture against Angola after netting a goal as the game ended 1-1 in Luanda.
“Jordan has come back injured from international duty,” he said.
“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.”
Jordan has been in fine form since joining the Foxes in the summer transfer window from Crystal Palace, netting two Premier League goals for the returnees.
Meanwhile, compatriot and Leicester City teammate Abdul Fatawu Issahaku has been ruled out for the rest of the season after suffering an anterior cruciate ligament injury.
