West Ham United's club-record signing didn't last very long in his debut for the Hammers.
On Monday, in the 34th minute of West Ham's fixture at Chelsea, Andre Ayew was forced to exit the pitch after going down with an injury to his right leg. The ailment appeared to be picked up when the Ghanaian forward was in pursuit of Eden Hazard and he was replaced by Gokhan Tore rather than Dimitri Payet.
