Swansea City left-back Neil Taylor has said that the Swans squad are surprised at how quickly new star man Andre Ayew has settled in after his summer move from Marseille.

Ayew signed for Swansea as a free agent, and became an instant hit in South Wales after scoring on his debut against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on the opening day of the season.

Taylor himself has had a solid campaign so far, keeping Franck Tabanou out of the frame completely. Now, the 26-year-old Welsh international has spoken to Wales Online about his Ghanaian team-mate.

“Andre has been great and he’s taken to this league brilliantly considering he’s someone who came from the French league,” said Taylor.

“We are surprised he could make the transition so quickly. Sometimes, it can take time and players can find it difficult but that has not been the case for him at all.”

“He’s enjoying his football and like a lot of players who have come to Swansea, he’s settled in well and is scoring goals. Obviously, that’s great for him and great for us and we’re all hoping he can continue doing that.”

The Swans face Liverpool at Anfield on the weekend, and Taylor & Ayew will have to be in top-form to overcome Jurgen Klopp’s side.

The Reds beat Manchester City 4-1 last week in what was a brilliant performance, whereas Swansea succumbed to a 2-2 draw with Bournemouth.
