Andre Ayew: Father Abedi Pele suggested I rejoin Swansea City

Despite his father’s advice, Ayew said the chance to link again with his brother was not a major factor in his decision. “I didn’t need to speak to him because I speak to him often and knew what was going on,” he said. “The relationship I had [with Swansea] was something special.” Ayew and Wales midfielder Andy King are both available for the first time since their deadline-day arrivals as the Swans look to sustain their momentum after just one defeat in 10 games under Carvalhal. The Swans have lifted themselves out of the relegation zone but their injury problems continue to grow. Leroy Fer (Achilles) and Wilfried Bony (ligament injury) are both ruled out for the rest of the season, while Portuguese midfielder Renato Sanches is sidelined with a hamstring problem. And although Leon Britton’s groin injury is expected to improve with an injection, Carvalhal revealed veteran defender Angel Rangel is facing surgery on a groin problem. Rangel signed for Swansea in 2007 and, despite making only one league appearance this season, has played 371 games for the Swans, scoring 10 goals. Source: BBC
