Ayew transferred to West Ham United for a fee of £20.5 million after a successful period with Swansea in 2016, during which he performed well.
However, closing the transfer season in 2018, he completed a deadline-day return to Swansea City for a reported £18 million rising to £20 million with add-ons.
