Jordan Ayew refuses to train with Swansea

Crystal Palace target Jordan Ayew has reportedly refused to train at Swansea City as he looks to force a move away.

The Ghanaian international has been linked with a move back to the Premier League following the welsh club’s relegation to the Championship.

And with two days left of the window, the 26 year old has gone on strike in a bid to leave the Liberty Stadium.

"There's no further news on Jordan - he's just not been here," Swansea boss Graham Potter told BBC Sport Wales.

"That tells you that he's not part of what we're trying to do, by his own actions.

"It's whether we can get a good enough deal for the club. Otherwise, that's going to be an interesting time for him."
Ayew joined Swansea from Aston Villa in 2017 and, after a slow start, he established himself as a key figure in the first team last season.
