Marseille rule out Andre Ayew sale to Arsenal

Published on: 17 August 2011

Olympique Marseille sporting director Jose Anigo has insisted midfielder Andre Ayew is not for sale at any price despite speculations linking the player to Arsenal.

Reports suggest that the Gunners have penned down the Ghana international as a like-for-like replacement for want-away Frenchman Samir Nasri .

However, Anigo has now made it clear that a summer move is not an option.

"Andre Ayew is not for sale. It is correct that he has a clause in his contract, but that clause was valid until a certain date and that day has already passed. If clubs want to buy him now, they'd have to pay another fee than that clause. Andre still has plenty to achieve at Marseille," Anigo

Ayew has a contract with Marseille until the summer of 2014.

The 21-year-old was on target for the dethroned Ligue 1 champions last week in a 2-2 draw at Auxerre. Â
