Ayew was once again named in Crystal Palace’s starting line-up but was substituted after 71 minutes due to an injury.
The 32-year-old had a blow to his hip in the first half and managed to continue playing but had to come off in the second half as Crystal Palace went on to lose.
Giving an update on Ayew, Eagles manager Oliver Glasner confirmed that it was a hip injury and said he hoped it wasn’t too bad.
“He got a hit in the first half on his hip. He already told us at half-time he had maybe 10 or 15 minutes, but I hope and I think it’s not so bad,” Glasner said after the game.
