Goodbye Fernando Llorente and hello again Wilfried Bony

September 8, 2017 by Jordan Newhouse

Transfer deadline day was interesting for Swansea City fans this year. As expected, Spain striker Fernando Llorente decided to leave the Liberty Stadium but opted for Tottenham Hotspur over defending Premier League champions Chelsea – arguably one of the shock moves of the summer. But perhaps more interestingly from a Swansea perspective, Wilfried Bony is […]

New Swansea signings must rise to the occasion

September 7, 2017 by Jack Lass

Swansea City have been able to perform a strong rebuild towards the end of the transfer window, despite the loss of Gylfi Sigurdsson to Everton.

The Next Sigurdsson: Three Contenders

August 23, 2017 by Jack Lass

And so, finally, the inevitable has come to pass. Gylfi Sigurdsson, the man who almost single-handedly prevented Swansea from nosediving out of the Premier League, and the vast riches it now promises, has joined Everton for a £45m fee.

July 30, 2017 by Swans Info

With Gylfi Sigurðsson missing yet another of the Swans pre-season friendlies – the latest a 2 nil win at Championship side Birmingham City – surely it is time for the club to draw a line under the seemingly never ending transfer saga. Whilst there is much to be admired by the stance adopted thus far […]

To make this happen, the manager of Swansea City will need to have the best possible players in his team. Irrespective of that, he has guaranteed […]

If reports in the Norfolk based newspaper the Eastern Daily Press are anything to go by, then the Swans are tracking Norwich City left-back/winger Robbie Brady.
