Andre Ayew has been voted Swansea best player for the month of October.

The Ghana international beat off competition from Welsh defender Neil Taylor and England midfielder Jonjo Shelvey for the monthly top prize.

Ayew has been impressive in the Premier League after joining Swansea in the summer from French side Marseille,scoring five goals with 11 assists since his arrival from France.

Under the month in review, Ayew scored twice in four league games. He found the back of the net in a 2-2 draw with Tottenham on October 4, before grabbing the winner in a 2-1 victory over Aston Villa three weeks later.

The former Marseille man won the award in his maiden month with Swansea last August.
