Ghanaian forward Jordan Ayew has urged patience from supporters after Leicester City endured successive setbacks in the 2025/26 campaign.
The Foxes were knocked out of the EFL Cup following a penalty shootout defeat to Huddersfield Town, where Ayew missed from the spot. Hopes of an immediate response faded days later when they fell 2-1 to Preston North End in the Championship.
Despite the disappointing run, the 32-year-old remains optimistic about the team’s prospects.
“It was a game where we played a bit into their hands for them to be hitting channel balls,” he told the club’s media. “It’s still early days, so we’ll keep on working. The most important thing for us is that, in May, we’ll all be happy.
“There are 44 games, there are many games, so it’s good it happens now so we can correct things quickly,” Ayew added.
Leicester will look to bounce back this weekend when they host Charlton Athletic at the King Power Stadium on Saturday, August 23, with Ayew expected to play a key role in pushing for only their second league victory of the season.
