Jordan Ayew set to complete permanent move to Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace are reportedly set to complete a permanent move for Swansea City striker Jordan Ayew.

The 27-year-old joined the Eagles on an initial season-long loan deal last season, following Swansea’s relegation from the Premier League.

A fee of around £2.5m with add-ons is expected to see the Ghana international return, having made 24 appearances for Palace last season, scoring twice.

The deal could be wrapped up as soon as Jordan returns from Africa Cup of Nations duty in Egypt.

He has been Ghana’s standout player in the ongoing continental showpiece where he has scored twice in three matches to help the Black Stars progress to the last-16 where they will face Tunisia on Monday.
