Abner Vinicius, Malick Fofana, Alexander Lacazette and Said Benrahma were all on target for Lyon in the 4-0 romping of Le Havre, as reported by One Football.
Ayew's first spell with Le Havre ended successfully after playing a huge role in helping the club avoid relegation. He scored five goals for the club after joining them in November 2023.
He is expected to lead the club once again to survival following a tough start to the campaign.
Ayew excited to rejoin Le Havre
Ayew had received offers from several clubs during the summer transfer window but opted to return to Le Havre.
According to the former Marseille attacker, he didn't want to join a club where he had to start from the scratch.
"I admit that I would have liked to take a little less time. There were quite a few requests at the beginning of the summer, some really interesting, concrete proposals. But, at the end of last season, I already had the idea of coming back in the back of my mind.
I didn't feel like going to a club where I would have had to start from scratch. HAC was therefore an obvious choice. Today, everyone has made the effort and I am happy to be back with the club and the group," he said, as quoted by Football Club Marseille.
