⚽ Exciting times for Swansea City fans! The Swans are on the verge of making their ninth signing of this wild summer transfer window. Nottingham Forest’s Marko Stamenic is set for a medical today and could soon don the iconic white jersey. 🦢
Currently, the New Zealand international is travelling to south Wales. Stamenic, who spent last season on loan with Greek club Olympiacos, has already proven his midfield prowess with 23 appearances in Greece’s top flight. Despite not making a first-team appearance for Forest, he’s made a splash on the international stage with 31 caps for New Zealand. 🌍
Initially signed from Serbia’s Red Star Belgrade, Stamenic’s journey has taken him from New Zealand’s Western Suburbs to Team Wellington, a stint in Denmark, and now potentially to Swansea. He’s a versatile midfielder who can comfortably slot into various roles in midfield, a great boost for Swans boss Alan Sheehan. 💪
His arrival will strengthen an already promising midfield line-up, joining recent Swansea signings Ethan Galbraith and Malick Yalcouye. The squad has been buzzing with new faces: defenders Cameron Burgess, Ricardo Santos, Kaelan Casey, keeper Paul Farman, winger Zeidane Inoussa, and striker Bobby Wales. 🏹
But the hunt isn’t over. The club is still on the lookout for a striker, a left-sided defender, and possibly another winger. With the Championship campaign heating up, Swansea is all set to host Sheffield United this Saturday at 3pm BST. Can’t wait to see how this new Swans squad shapes up! ⚽🔥
