Swansea City close to deal for Aston Villa's Jordan Ayew with Neil Taylor set to move the other way

Swansea are close to completing a deal for Aston Villa's Jordan Ayew that would see Neil Taylor move to the Championship club in a part-exchange transfer.

Villa would also receive a significant sum of money, believed to be around £5million, for the Ghana forward but the deal is yet to be completed due to Ayew’s involvement with the Africa Cup of Nations.

Ayew scored in Ghana’s victory over DR Congo on Sunday night to take his country into the semi-finals against Cameroon on Thursday.
