OFFICIAL: Swansea City confirm Andre Ayew loan move to Fenerbahce
26th July 2018
Swansea City have officially announced the departure of Ghana star Andre Ayew to Fenerbahce on Wednesday evening.
The 28-year-old is on his way to Istanbul for talks and is expected to have a medical and complete the final details with the Turkish club ahead of a season-long loan.
The Ghanaian international returned to the Liberty Stadium in January for a club record £20m fee, but could not exert the impact the relegated English Premier League side had hoped for in their survival battle.
Below is Swansea’s statement on Ayew’s exit:
“Ayew today left the Swans’ pre-season tour in Austria to travel to Turkey for a medical ahead of his move to the Super Lig, which will be completed subject to international clearance.
The Turkish giants will also have the option to purchase Ayew on a permanent deal at the end of his loan spell”
