Ayew confirmed his departure speaking with Fenerbahce official TV station after the game: "First of all, I want to thank the fans, the club, and the staff. I am leaving this great club with lots of experience. It was a very tough year for us but at least we have managed to finish the season strongly.

"Let’s hope Fenerbahce have a great season in the next campaign. Speaking personally, I have to say that I should have done better. This is a huge club and the memories will remain with me forever.”

The English Championship side Swansea City asset didn’t impress the technical handlers of the club to earn himself a permanent deal.
