West Ham United have agreed a fee of around £20m to sign Ghana striker Andre Ayew from Swansea City after the Hammers refused to retain the services of Nigerian duo Victor Moses and Emmanuel Emenike.

Slaven Bilic had recruited Moses, 25 and Emenike , 29 at different stages last season but while several bouts of injuries limited the former’s chances at Upton Park, the latter failed to find his scoring form in the EPL.

Meanwhile,  26-year-old Ghana International, who the Swans signed on a free transfer from French club Marseille in 2015, was Swansea’s top scorer last season with 12 goals.
