Andre Ayew happy to stay at Marseille

Marseille forward Andre Ayew says he is happy to stay at Velodrome despite heavy interest from abroad.

The 21-year-old is followed by Arsenal, among other clubs, but he doesn’t think leaving Marseille would be the right thing to do.

“No, I never thought about leaving. I want to stay at L’OM. A departure is not part of my career path yet,” Ayew told France Football.

“There were rumours, but I didn’t comment. There is a right time for everything. I am fine at Marseille. But indeed it is true foreign clubs were keen to act.

“If the club wants to extend my contract and erase that clause, we will find a good moment to talk.

“It is up to the club. If the officials want to start to negotiate, it is up to them.”
