Jordan Ayew joins Sheffield United on one-year deal and reunites with Hamza Choudhury | OneFootball

Jordan Ayew has signed for Championship side Sheffield United on a one-year deal after leaving Leicester City this summer.

LeicesterMercury.co.uk reports that the Ghana international departed at the end of his contract after 80 appearances, scoring 12 across two seasons, and enduring two relegations. After playing at the World Cup in the summer, he was without a club and was linked with Blackburn Rovers at the weekend before choosing the Blades.

Ayew said he was delighted to join, thanked the manager and club for moving quickly, and hoped they would enjoy a great season together.

He added that the set-up reminds him of his time at Palace and that the move came together quickly after a call from Chris Wilder last week while he was in Ghana.

Ayew said he did not think twice about the opportunity, has a strong desire to make an impact, and wants to help a squad he believes has plenty of positives.

He will reunite with Hamza Choudhury at Bramall Lane, the midfielder having joined on a permanent deal near the end of the transfer window.
