Crystal Palace manager Patrick Vieira has revealed that he could play Jordan Ayew in the centre of midfield ahead of their Premier League game against Chelsea on Saturday.
Ayew shined as a central midfielder when the Eagles played out a goalless draw with Newcastle United before the international break.
The 31-year-old later took take the centre-forward position after the introduction of Michael Olise.
"Jordan played that role when we went on tour so knows the responsibility of the position, and that gives me good options," Vieira told the club website.
"There’s an option on the table to play him there. He was fantastic when he played there, is an intelligent player and is prepared to sacrifice himself for the team. When he went centrally that gave us really good balance."
"Tough place to come: a big atmosphere and we needed to defend well as a team. We did it well and fully deserve the point. They’re a really strong side and this is one team you can count on to play European football."
Ayew has made seven appearances for Crystal Palace this season and provided one assist in the process.
