Andre Ayew
Ghana international Andre Ayew was in the Swansea City team for the first time on their pre-season tour of America as they lost a friendly to US side Richmond Kickers.
The hosts got off to a fantastic start, going ahead after Jordi Amat put a low cross from Brian Ownby into his own net 10 minutes into the tie.
After 72 minutes the hosts doubled their lead after Swansea enjoyed a lengthy spell of possession, Anthony Grant broke away on the counter and beat substitute goalkeeper Gerry Tremmel.
With three strikers practically out of the door this summer, either a new signing was going to lead the line for Swansea this season, or Andre Ayew would.
There have been a few strikers linked with a move to South Wales, but very few seem to have substance. Guidolin has spoken in the past about how he thinks Ayew’s natural position is as a striker, so perhaps that’s where his long-term role lies.
He played the first half as a striker and was fairly ineffectual, which is expected, seeing as it’s his first taste of football since he linked up with his national side over a month ago.
