Swansea City is gearing up as the January transfer window nears its close, with more deals possibly on the horizon. After securing Joel Ward and Gustavo Nunes, the focus might now shift to bolstering the front line due to Adam Idah’s injury. Speculation is swirling around Birmingham City’s Kyogo Furuhashi as a potential target. While Zan Vipotnik shines as a top striker, the squad is feeling the pinch with limited forward options, especially with Idah sidelined. Liam Cullen and Melker Widell could step in, but they’re naturally suited to deeper roles. The young and promising Bobby Wales isn’t quite ready for the spotlight in Championship football just yet.
But the urgency doesn’t end up front! With Kaelan Casey gone and Ricardo Santos eyeing an exit, Swansea’s defensive backbone is looking a bit fragile. If Santos moves, it’ll leave Ben Cabango and Cameron Burgess as the primary centre-backs. Vitor Matos, Swans’ manager, is keeping a cool head but admits they might look to reinforce if the right opportunity arises, even considering positions elsewhere on the pitch.
There’s been chatter among fans about recalling Filip Lissah, who’s been earning rave reviews at Falkirk. However, Swansea seems inclined to let him mature further in Scotland rather than pulling him back prematurely. As the clock ticks down, all eyes are on the Swans for any surprise moves that might pop up before the window slams shut. 🦢⚽️
