Andre Ayew- My dad was against my move to West Ham

The 28-year-old forward has disclosed that his father Abedi Pele Ayew didn't back his decision to join West Ham United.

The deputy skipper of the Black Stars completed a 20.6 million pounds club record move to the Hammers.

However, he failed to replicate the form that compelled former West Ham United boss Slaven Bilic to break bank for his signature from the Swans due to injury worries.

Andre Ayew rejoined the Welsh side in his bid to relaunch his career and help them avoid relegation.

He has disclosed that he would have stayed at Swansea, if he had listened to Abedi Pele Ayew.

“My father is happy, he was not for me leaving Swansea to be fair,” said Andre.

“He told me he did not want me to go, he felt I was not done here but things happen and decisions are made.”

“But when I had the chance to come back his advice was to come back to Swansea and not go anywhere else.”

“I thought about it, I have more experience now so I made sure I considered everything.”

Andre Ayew has rejoined his junior brother Jordan Ayew at Swansea.
