Swansea City new signing Andre Ayew has praised French international Bafetimbi Gomis describing him as one of the best strikers in the English Premier League.
The attacker of Senegalese origin has formed an impregnable partnership with Ayew which has yielded seven goals in between them for the Welsh side.
The former Lyon forward was set up beautifully by Ayew over the weekend for the second goal as Swansea defeated Manchester United 2-1 at the Liberty Stadium.
“Bafe is a player I know very well. He is a complete striker,” Ayew told the South Wales Evening Post. “He plays in the air, he keeps the ball, he goes behind the back, he is quick.
“He is a player who was underestimated for a while. He is a big striker and with the opportunity he has had since January, he is proving that he is one of the top strikers in the league.”
Ayew and Gomis have been close friends since their time in France though they were playing for rival clubs.
