With the score goalless away to Nantes in Ligue 1 this afternoon, Ayew was brought off the bench in the 65th-minute to bolster the away team’s attack.

But just 144 seconds later he was marching back off the pitch after receiving a straight red card.

That was after a nasty challenge that resulted in him stamping on the knee of the grounded Eray Comert.

Fortunately for him his team-mates were able to hold on, keep a clean sheet and secure a point without him.

Ayew had been a free agent since his Nottingham Forest contract expired in the summer.

He was presented to supporters inside the stadium earlier this month after penning his deal.

The ace started his career in France with Marseille, winning two League Cups with the club before moving to Swansea in 2015.
