West Ham broke their transfer record last summer with the £20.5m acquisition of Andre Ayew from Swansea and after a slow start to life in east London, he performed rather well.
In his debut season with the Hammers, Ayew netted six goals in 25 appearances but his performances in the final few months of the season offered belief that he could develop into a leading player at the club.
That being said, he could still leave the club in the summer, with France Football (h/t Sport Witness) claiming that Ayew is angling for a return to his former club Marseille.
Last month, Marseille were linked with a £30m swoop to bring Ayew back to the club, two years after he left on a free transfer to join Swansea.
The new investment and ambitious project in place at the Ligue 1 club was enough to persuade Dimitri Payet to quit West Ham and rejoin Marseille back in January, and it’s claimed that Ayew could try and pull a similar move.
Whether Marseille are still interested in Ayew remains to be seen, but it’s unlikely that West Ham would like to do any business with the French side anytime soon.
