Ghana forward Jordan Ayew has opened up on his return to Crystal Palace this weekend after his departure in the summer.
The Black Stars striker ended his six-year spell with Crystal Palace to join Leicester City in the summer transfer window, signing a two-year deal with the club.
Ayew returns to South London for the first time since his departure last month and is expected to lead the Foxes against his former employers.
“It will be strange because I was there for six years and it was my home. Obviously I’m going to meet a lot of people who I didn’t get to say goodbye to properly and it’s going to be emotional and mixed feelings, but I have to defend my new colours,” he told LCFC.
“When the game starts, I have no friends until after the game. I’m going to make sure that we get three points or one point and perform well as a team to keep our fans happy, celebrating a first away victory or draw.
“We need to get something out of the game and I’m positive. It would be massive for confidence and for belief for the future as well. We’re going there humbled, but we definitely want to have a good performance and hopefully get the points.”
Ayew has netted one goals since joining the former Premier League winners in August.
