New Swansea City signing Andre Ayew has claimed that it has always been his dream to play in the Premier League.

The 25-year-old completed his move to the Swans earlier today on a free transfer, after spending his entire professional career at Marseille.

"This is the next chapter. I've played in the Champions League et cetera, but now I want to make it in the Premier League," he told Swansea's official website.

"I am very happy to have signed for Swansea, which is a very good club in the Premier League.

"I can't wait to get the season started. It's been my dream to play in the Premier League with a good club."

Ayew is a Ghanaian international and has scored 11 goals in 62 appearances for his country.
