Andre Ayew looks a dead certain to arrive in the Premier League next season – but will Hull City go back in for the striker?
Marseille have reluctantly allowed Ayew to look elsewhere as his contract is set to expire and the winger wants out.
The 25-year-old’s refusal to pen a new deal has caught the eyes of a number of Europe’s big boys, including Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool, according to the Daily Star.
Marseille president Vincent Labrune said: “We can’t keep Ayew. He is a very important player for OM but we can’t offer him the kind of money that English clubs can offer.
“The French financial system is complicated and we can’t offering him an equivalent salary to what he can earn in England.
“And equally, we can’t ask Ayew, who we love and is an icon for our team, to accept a lower salary.
“That makes no sense so unfortunately he is going to quit the club and we hope he has a great career that he deserves in England or somewhere else.”
Much will hinge on City’s place in the Premier League, but would the Tigers throw themselves back in the ring?
