West Ham target Jordan Ayew

Aston Villa forward Jordan Ayew has emerged as a transfer target for West Ham United this summer.

The Ghana international has had a decent showing for the Villains despite their dismal run in the Premier League this term.

According to The Telegraph, the Hammers have been impressed by what they have seen of the player, and could come up with a summer offer for his signature.

Slaven Bilic's team had kept close tabs on the 24-year-old before he made his switch to Villa Park from Lorient last summer.

Ayew has amassed six league goals for the Midlands outfit, who are set to ply their trade in the Championship next season.
