Jordan Ayew Extends Marseille Contract

Ghana striker Jordan Ayew has reached an agreement for a contract extension at Olympique Marseille. The 19-year-old is expected to put pen-to-paper later in the week in a deal which will see him stay with the club until June 2013. The youngest son of Ghana football legend Abedi Pele has been touted for greatness at the club. Jordan has hit a rich vein in the off-season and grabbed a brace in Tuesday's 8-2 win over Manchester United in a charity match. He will make the bench in Saturday's French Ligue 1 opener against Sochaux.
