Ayew keen on Italy and England

Andre Ayew wants to play in Italy next season, according to his agent.

Ayew, 20, is contracted to Marseille but has been sent out on loan to Lorient and Arles-Avignon in the last two seasons.

Having impressed for his country at the World Cup, it appears he could now be set to move on, and agent Luca Pagani has revealed Italy is his favoured destination.

"I am working on a Serie A move," he told Sky Italia. "He wants to play in Italy."

Ayew has also indicated that he would relish the chance to move to England. "We all love watching the Premiership," he said. "The game has so much speed and the fighting spirit appeals to everyone in Africa.

"It's the best league in the world. They have teams who appeal to different styles. Some play direct and physically while others play slick football on the ground."
