In their first pre-season friendly, the Eagles tore apart their Premier League rivals Wolves 3-1, with Ayew scoring his side's second after coming on in the second half.

In a video shared on social media, Ayew majestically controlled a long pass from goalkeeper Dean Henderson before firing home for the Eagles.

Compatriot Jeffrey Schlupp had opened the scoring after curling home from outside the box following a poor clearance by the Wolves goalkeeper.

Santiago Bueno pulled one back for Wolves before Ayew served Asher Agbinone with his side's third.

Leicester interested in Ayew

The 32-year-old could leave Selhurst Park this summer after Leicester City showed interest in his services, as reported by Give Me Sport.

Despite his incredible form for Ghana and Palace, the veteran forward is yet to convince Oliver Glasner for consistent game time.

Ghana players shine in pre-season

Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that Ghanaian players have been very busy in pre-season as they prepare for the upcoming season with their clubs in Europe.

From Mohammed Kudus to Jordan Ayew and Thomas Partey, several Black Stars players are with their teams in either Asia or America for their pre-season tours.

Kudus is hoping to do better than he did with West Ham last season while Partey has a point to prove after an injury-ravaged campaign.
