Jordan Ayew signs new contract with Crystal Palace until 2025

Jordan Ayew has signed a new contract with Crystal Palace until summer 2025.

The forward joined the club from Swansea on loan in 2018 before signing a permanent deal in 2019 and has made 186 appearances in all competitions.

Ayew has played 10 times in the Premier League this season, scoring once - against Tottenham last Friday - and providing two assists.

Upon signing a new deal, the Ghana international told the club website: "It feels great. I think everyone knows how much I love this club. I feel immense pride every time I put on the Palace shirt; this club is my home, and signing a new contract shows that.

"Everything about Crystal Palace is special - the fans especially. They are our 12th man. There isn't a fanbase as passionate and supportive as ours in the league; they are always with us from the first minute until the end.

"I'd like to thank the manager - I have so much respect for Roy [Hodgson], he's been so good to me - and Steve Parish and Dougie Freedman. They're always there when you need them. Not forgetting all of the staff at the club; we all have a great bond here.

"I hope I can help the club push on up the league. We have a good squad and the belief to achieve something special. I will be giving 100 per cent every week to make sure we go on a good run and start climbing the table."

Palace also announced England goalkeeper Sam Johnstone had signed a new deal extending his stay with the club until the summer of 2027.

The 30-year-old, holder of four international caps, has been with the Eagles since arriving from West Brom in 2022 and has kept nine clean sheets in 23 appearances to date.
