Swansea join the chase for Jordan Ayew

Swansea City have become the latest club chasing Aston Villa striker Jordan Ayew, Ghanasoccernet.com reports.

Ayew has been touted with a move away from Villa Park since the Villains relegation at the end of last season. They have held onto him so far, and he even featured in Wednesday nights defeat in the EFL Cup at the hands of Luton Town.

Swansea will face competition for Ayew’s signature, with Premier League rivals West Ham, West Brom and Sunderland all vying for the Ghanaian’s services. Further afield, German side Hamburg are believed to be interested in the 24-year-old. Villa are thought to want £12m for the striker.

Ayew joined Aston Villa last summer from French outfit Lorient for £10.25m and scored seven goals in his 36 appearances for Villa.

Ayew is a Ghanaian international, having made his international debut in 2010 against Swaziland. Since then, he has picked up 37 international caps and scored 12 times for his country.
