Ayew re-joined Swansea in January after two seasons at West Ham United, but was unable to stop relegation to the Championship, the 28-year-old failing to score on his Liberty Stadium return.

The Ghana international signed a three-and-a-half-year contract with the Swans but he will not be part of Graham Potter's squad looking to bounce back at the first attempt.

Ayew will travel to Istanbul for a medical on Friday (AEST) before completing the loan deal, with the move subject to international clearance.

"I understand the circumstances of the move — it's part of the restructure of us going forward," Potter said.

"From my perspective he has been brilliant. He has applied himself in training, supported what we are trying to do and been very professional.

"He has been a joy to work with and we wish him the best."
