Swansea have warned Andre Ayew’s
suitors  Sunderland and Liverpool they “won’t entertain” the idea of
selling their star striker, outgoing interim manager Alan Curtis
insists.
Ayew has been the subject of strong Sunderland interest
and the forward’s boyhood favourites Liverpool have also been linked
with the Ghana international, who finished third in 2015 African Footballer of the Year awards.
The 26-year-old joined on a free
transfer from Marseille last summer and has been one of the few bright
spots in Swansea’s struggling season with seven goals making him the
club’s top scorer.
And Curtis, who was in charge for the final
time in Monday night’s 1-0 victory over Watfordwith new head coach
Francesco Guidolin set to take over team affairs at Everton on Sunday,
said selling Ayew was not an option.
“There was talk of him going to Sunderland or them making a bid,” Curtis said after his second win in seven league games.
“But we wouldn’t even entertain that as far as I am concerned.
“He is one of a number of big players for us and we don’t want to lose anybody during the window.
“We want to bring people in and we will get somebody in.
“But if we don’t it’s important no one else goes out through the door.” |
