Jordan Ayew’s 25-yard strike against Tranmere Rovers wins Leicester City Goal of the Month award

Leicester City forward Jordan Ayew has won the club’s Goal of the Month award for August 2024, after fans voted his spectacular strike against Tranmere Rovers as the standout goal.

The Ghanaian international marked his first start for the Foxes with a memorable goal in their 4-0 EFL Cup victory.

Ayew, 30, unleashed a powerful shot from outside the penalty box in the 38th minute, opening his scoring account for Leicester in style. His goal was a key moment in the match, setting the tone for the team’s dominant performance at the King Power Stadium.

The award, announced on Tuesday, September 10, recognizes Ayew’s immediate impact since joining Leicester City on a two-year deal during the summer transfer window. After spending six years at Crystal Palace, the striker has quickly become a fan favorite at his new club.

Leicester fans overwhelmingly selected Ayew’s goal as the best of the month, praising his technical ability and composure. Ayew’s addition has strengthened manager Steve Cooper’s squad as they look to secure their place in the Premier League after promotion.

Ayew is expected to feature in Leicester City's upcoming Premier League fixture against his former club, Crystal Palace, on Saturday, where he will aim to build on his impressive start with the Foxes.
