Swansea willing to spend £18m to re-sign Ayew

Swansea City are reportedly preparing an improved offer for West Ham attacker Andre Ayew.

According to a report from the Telegraph, the Swans remain extremely keen to re-sign the Ghanaian international from the Hammers and are willing to part with a fee of £18 million in order to do so.

West Ham recruited Ayew from Swansea in the summer of 2016 for a fee thought to be in the region of £20m and if they go ahead and accept the Swans’ apparent approach, they will recoup the large majority of that fee.

Ayew has shown glimpses of quality during his short tenure at West Ham so far but has flattered to deceive in large parts, struggling with inconsistency and injuries.

Swansea reportedly had an opening offer of £14m turned down but this doesn’t appear to have deterred them, with Carlos Carvalhal keen to recruit more attacking talent as he bids to keep his side in the Premier League.
