Swansea City and Ghana have been boosted by news that attacker Andre Ayew is expected back in action before the end of the season.
The 31-year-old sustained a hamstring injury while in action for the Jack Army in a 2-2 draw with Wycombe Wanderers in the EFL Championship, a setback which resulted in his substitution in just the ninth minute of the game.
He consequently missed Tuesday's 1-0 loss to Queens Park Rangers and is also set to miss Swansea's trip to Reading on Sunday.

“He is out with a hamstring injury, it is a grade one so he is unlikely to be available for Reading, but hopefully he will be okay for Derby,” said Cooper, as reported by his club's official website.
