'I know why no-one wants to leave Premier League'

Swansea City ace Andre Ayew admits he has quickly caught the Premier League bug.

The Ghanaian has been a revelation since his arrival at the Liberty Stadium.

Ayew told La Provence: “It’s true, from what I’ve already seen in the Premier League, it deserves its reputation.

“When one experiences the Premier League, I understand why now it’s hard to play anywhere but in this championship, and not only for financial reasons.

“There is a great popular appeal. The intensity of the matches is huge. And the mentality inside a club, a group of players, fans and people in general is different. This really is another world.

“Under these conditions, it is not because they would earn a thousand times more money than elsewhere that many players do not come back to France.”
