Liverpool are set to lose out to Roma in the race to sign Marseille winger Andre Ayew.

Ayew, whose contract with the French club expires at the end of the season, will join the Giallorossi in the summer on a free transfer.

According to Sky Italia, the Ghanaian international will be offered a three-year contract worth around £2m per year.

Liverpool were keen on signing Ayew as they look to bolster their attacking options in the close season.

The 25-year-old was open to a potential move to Merseyside but with Liverpool's chances of reaching the Champions League all but over, it is thought Ayew has turned his attentions to completing a move to Italy.

    But, Ayew would make an ideal replacement for Sterling, who seems to be on his way out this summer.

    Haha,GSN you make it sound as if Liverpool wanted Ayew when in actual fact it's the other way round.
