Swansea City star Andre Ayew not thinking about future

Published on: 20 July 2020

Andre Ayew insists it is not time to be thinking about his future at Swansea City as his focus is on securing Premier League promotion with the club. 

The Ghana captain, who has a year left on his contract has been in great form as Swansea are chasing promotion to the top-flight.

They won this past weekend against Bristol City to boost their play-off bid. Swansea, in seventh, are three points behind sixth-placed Cardiff and will reach the play-offs if they win at Reading and the Bluebirds are beaten at home by relegation-threatened Hull.

However, should they fail to qualify, it is very likely Andre will leave this summer for financial reasons. The 30-year-old is the club's highest earner.

"At the moment I'm not thinking about that," said forward Ayew.

"I'm just thinking about getting three points (at Reading) on Wednesday and hopefully Hull City winning. That's what I want. I'm not thinking beyond that at all."

Ayew rejoined Swansea from West Ham for a second spell at the club in January 2018 and returned to south Wales again last summer after a season-long loan at Fenerbahce.

"I'm happy here. I love it and I have a great bond with the club and fans.

"When I came back it was after an injury and then we went down. It was a difficult period, but this season I was able to put things back into order and make sure the fans know I'm back.

"I'm happy for that and they're happy with me and that bond is back. I'm a player who needs that feeling around me to give my best.

"Having that from the Swansea fans is very important to me.

"It's something we'll sit down and think about when the time is right, but at the moment I'm thinking of trying to make the play-offs."

The 30-year-old has scored 17 goals this season for Swansea City across all competitions.
