Swansea City have confirmed the signing of Ghana International, Jordan Ayew from\u00a0Aston Villa on a three-and-a-half-year deal for an undisclosed fee.<\/p>\n

According to the Welsh club, Neil Taylor will join the\u00a0Championship\u00a0side as part of the deal.<\/p>\n

Jordan will join his new club after the AFCON where he’s scored one goal, in Ghana’s 2-1 win over DR Congo\u00a0in the quarterfinal.<\/p>\n

Swansea lost Andre Ayew, Jordan’s brother last summer to fellow Premier League club West Ham and the club’s manager Paul Clement believes the acquisition of the younger Ayew will be a boost to the struggling Welsh side.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m sure his brother has given him the inside track on the club,\u201d Paul Clement said of Jordan.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe is a very good acquisition. He\u2019s versatile and dynamic to attack the lines and get in behind defences. He will certainly give us something different to what we\u2019ve got.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jordan scored\u00a010 goals in 58 games for Aston Villa.<\/p>\n
