Palace have already signed Vicente Guaita, Cheikhou Kouyate and Max Meyer this summer and have been linked with a move for Galatasaray playmaker Younes Belhanda.
Ayew is currently contracted to Swansea City and was linked with a move away from the club ever since they were relegated from the Premier League.
The 26-year-old has two years remaining on his contract with the Swans. Ayew provided two assists and scored seven goals in 36 Premier League appearances last season.
