Leicester City have been relegated to League One in a stunning turn of events, with Ghanaian internationals Jordan Ayew and Abdul Fatawu Issahaku among those impacted by the club’s disappointing 2025/26 campaign.
The Foxes, who had already dropped from the Premier League the previous season, struggled throughout the campaign with inconsistent performances and missed chances. Their relegation was confirmed on Tuesday night following a 2-2 draw against Hull City at the King Power Stadium in Round 44.
Heading into the fixture, Leicester needed a victory to keep their survival hopes alive. Despite mounting a spirited fightback in the second half, they fell short of securing the crucial three points, sealing their fate.
The club will now complete its remaining fixtures against Millwall FC and Blackburn Rovers, though the outcomes will not alter their relegation status.
For Ayew and Issahaku, attention now turns to the future, with both players likely to review their situations during the upcoming summer transfer window.
They will also be eager to finish the season on a positive note as they push to secure spots in Ghana’s squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
