Swansea City to launch a third bid for Andre Ayew

Swansea City are ready to offer £18million to re-sign Ghana deputy skipper Andre Ayew.

After failing with a £14million bid for the player the SWANS are keen on getting Andre before the window closes on Wednesday.

The Swans find themselves bottom of the Premier League table even after beating Liverpool 1-0 last week, and sit three points adrift of safety after a dismal first half of the season.

Carlos Carvalhal will be looking to bring in new signings before Wednesday's transfer deadline in order to boost his squad, and the Swans are hoping to bring and old face back to the Liberty Stadium.

Ayew, 28, signed for Swansea from Marseille back in the summer of 2015, and earned a move to West Ham just a year later after hitting 12 goals in 34 games for the Swans.

The Ghanaian was seen as a major signing for West Ham, but he scored just six times last season, and with only nine Premier League starts this season, he has recorded just two Premier League goals this term.
