Jordan Ayew is set to complete a loan switch to Crystal Palace before the transfer deadline this evening.

The Ghana international is in London to finalize his move from Swansea City.

FootballMadeInGhana.com however understands that the move will be for an initial loan period with an option to make it permanent in January.

Swansea were pushing for an outright sale in the region of £12m but Crystal Palace failed to meet this valuation.

The Welsh club refused to sell to Fulham who had made a £7m bid earlier this summer.

Crystal Palace are themselves eager to reinforce in the striking department following the exits of Bakary Sako and Lee Chung-Yong.

Ayew, 26 is an interesting prospect for the Eagles after emerging as Swansea’s top scorer with 11 goals last season when they were relegated.
