Charlie Nicholas has questioned the wisdom of  West Ham paying Swansea £20.5m for Andre Ayew.

“I thought it was a bit pricey but then again everything is pricey at the minute,”  Nicholas told Sky Sports.

“He’s a decent player. He seems the type who, playing with better players, could get better again. There’s a lot I do like about him [but] it’s a lot of money.”

Andre Ayew was available on a free transfer last season but rejected the Hammers. Last August Hammers Chairman’s son Jack Sullivan has admitted that West Ham offered Andre Ayew £90,000 per week to become a Hammer before Swansea came in with a massive offer of £120,000 per week to gazump them. Jack was told by one West Ham fan last year  ‘Look at Ayew, the board just let him go, why? Questions need to be asked’

Young Sullivan replied on twitter ‘”We offered 90k a week! Swansea offered 120k”
