Jordan Ayew is a seasoned right winger for Crystal Palace boasting commendable experience and expertise on the pitch. At the age of 31, his standout quality lies in his defensive prowess, specifically in his ball recovery and one-on-one defending. His ball retention, while not exemplary, suggests a solid tendency to protect possession. However, he doesn't stay in possession as frequently as majority of his peers, as indicated by his touches score.
His ability to win in aerial duels and overall duels is considerable, giving him the chance to turn the tide in tight games. Progression-wise, Ayew demonstrates an average ability in carrying the ball forward, but his passing efficiency in the same dimension is below average. His involvement in creating scoring opportunities is limited, evidenced by his low percentile in chance creation and expected assists (xA); he remains a marginal threat in front of goal. Considerably, his conversion rate in goal opportunities ranks him fair among his peers. Despite being a right winger, he displays adequate efficiency in penalty area defending showing signs of a versatile player. However, his lower pass accuracy signifies need for improvement in his delivery techniques while his goal threat and shooting stats are areas where he needs to elevate his game, in order to contribute more effectively in the attacking third.
