Somehow, despite never really impressing since he left Marseille, Jordan Ayew clings to Premier League football.

Relegated to the Championship with Swansea, the Ghanaian forward is now expected to move to Crystal Palace on transfer deadline day.

While this has been in the works for a while and widely reported in England, RMC Sport in France are now announcing that everything has gone smoothly, and Ayew will be announced as a new Palace player at some point on Thursday.

The 26-year-old has passed his medical with the Eagles ahead of what will be a year loan at Selhurst Park.

He follows in the footsteps of his older brother, André, who also left Swansea this summer, but decided to move away from England, signing for Fenerbahçe in Turkey.

During his time at Swansea, Jordan Ayew scored 12 goals in 58 appearances, also picking up six assists along the way, which is an extremely similar tally to his time at Aston Villa where he scored 10 in 58.
