Premier League side West Ham are planning on signing Ghana and Swansea star Andre Ayew for £16 million this summer ahead of the new season.

The Hammers are reported to have made an offer for Ayew with Swans supremo Huw Jenkins willing to accept the surprise bid.

Ayew, 26, was linked with West Ham last summer when his deal ran out at Marseille but they refused to pay his wage demands.

Now Slaven Bilic’s side is ready to give Ayew about £75,000 a week to add variety to their attack.

Swansea manager Guidolin is however reported to having his eye on Barcelona wide man Cristian Tello, 24, as a possible replacement for the deputy Black Stars captain.
