Crystal Palace star Jordan Ayew has set sights on powering his side to finish in the top half of the premier league, and possibly qualify for Europe next season.
Ayew, the club’s top score and the players best player of the season, is optimistic the Eagles can have a better season than the previous season where they occupied the 12th position.
The Ghana striker’s nine goals were key for the South London side who confirmed their Premier League status early last season.
“Everyone wants to play in the big competitions. We want to finish in the top half of the table. We hope to get a good start to the season and we’ll see how it goes,” he told Citi Sports.
The new season being in a fortnight time with the Eagles beginning their campaign with a home game against Southampton.
The club are beefing up with the arrival of forward Eberechi Eze from QPR, but Ayew is not worried by competition.
“There haven’t been too many changes. The manager is trying to find solutions and different options, which is normal. The most important thing is to stay focused and start the new season well,” he added.
