Ghana forward Andre Ayew has been named in Fenerbahce squad in their Champions League qualifier against SL Benfica on Tuesday evening.

Ayew, who joined the Fenerbahce on a season-long loan deal from Swansea City fortnight ago, missed last week's first leg clash against the Portuguese giants through injury.

He returned in the starting line-up in their 2-1 win over Bursaspor before paving way for Alper Potuk in the 93rd minute of the match.

Coach Philip Cocu will be counting on the Ghanaian in tonight's game at the ?ükrü Saraco?lu Stadium as they aim to overturn a 1-0 deficit to book their place in the group stages of Europe's elite club competition.
