Despite sweeping the awards at Swansea City's end-of-season award night, Jordan Ayew has insisted that helping the south Wales outfit survive the drop would make the feat rather more enjoyable.
The Ghana international won the Swans’ Player of the Year, highest goal scorer prize [11] and his effort against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the FA Cup was chosen the goal of the season.
The Liberty Stadium outfit are a place and one point above the relegation zone and with three English Premier League games left to play against Bournemouth, Southampton and Stoke City, and the forward has vowed to help the side avoid demotion to the Championship.
“I have these trophies but I cannot enjoy them until we are safe,” Ayew told club website.
“I am really proud and really happy because I have gone through a lot of difficult moments and the awards are a sign that I am improving.
“For me and my family, my wife, it’s a positive thing. We just need to stay focused now and keep working hard to go further and further.
“I came to Swansea through the little door and a year and a half later I have some trophies. That is a sign that I am improving.
“This gives me more hunger and drive to go forward, and gives me more belief that I can fulfil my dreams.”
“I am going to make sure we stay in the Premier League. I am sure we are going to do it, but we need to do the job on the pitch.
“If we do that I will have fulfilled my targets for the season.”
