Ghana forward Jordan Ayew has described his match-winner for Leicester City in the game against Southampton as a 'special moment' for him since arriving at the King Power Stadium.

Ayew joined the Foxes in the summer transfer window from Premier League rivals Crystal Palace.

Despite settling at the club, it took time for him to net his first Premier League goal for Leicester and it came at a crucial time.

Leicester City were down by two goals after the first half but the 2016 champions produced a strong second half display with Ayew sealing the win with a last-minute strike.

“I went to the fans to thank them because they've been behind me since I came through the door. They've been behind me and I'm happy for them as well and happy for myself and my family as well.”
