Jordan Ayew poised for Leicester City return against Hull after Portsmouth draw

Ghana forward Jordan Ayew could return to Leicester City’s starting line-up when the Foxes travel to face Hull City in their midweek Championship clash on Tuesday.

Ayew was introduced as a substitute in Saturday’s 1–1 draw with Portsmouth, having only recently returned from international duty with Ghana during the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.

With a short turnaround between fixtures, manager Enzo Maresca is expected to rotate his squad, and Ayew may be one of the players restored to the starting XI.

If selected, Ayew is likely to feature on the left wing, a role he occupied during his cameo against Portsmouth. His versatility and work rate make him an ideal fit for Leicester’s fluid attacking setup, and his return to full fitness could provide the spark the Foxes need as they aim to get back to winning ways.

Patson Daka is expected to retain his place up front, with Ayew potentially supporting him from the flank. The combination of the two could add both pace and directness to Leicester’s attack, something they lacked in stretches of the Portsmouth match.

Ayew’s experience and creativity could prove vital as Leicester look to secure all three points on their trip to Humberside.
