Black Stars skipper Jordan Ayew had a decent performance in Sheffield United’s 1-0 defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers in the English Championship on September 13, 2026.

The former Leicester City attacker played 26 minutes but could not do much to change the fortunes of his new club, as Raúl Jiménez’s late goal sealed defeat for the Blades.

Ayew was active both offensively and defensively, recording respectable statistics in passes, progressive carries, and attacking contributions.
