Borre And Mitrovic Going Elsewhere?

Two players that the Swans have been linked with this summer are Rafael Borre and Aleksandar Mitrovic but we are likely to lose out on both of them for differing reasons.

Firstly, for Borre. As we reported last week the Swans were already in danger of missing out on Borre after the FA refused to grant a work permit.

It was understood that the Swans had struck a deal for the youngster but now it looks like he will move to either Villareal or Udinese in the light of the Swans deal not going through which will doubly frustrate the Swans having missed out on the player.

For Mitrovic I think it is slightly different. The price tag was always a big one for the Swans and I think this deal died its death when we completed the signing of Eder last weekend. There was also reported Premier League interest from Chelsea, Tottenham and Newcastle above others but it does not look like he will head to the Premier League this season with Roma, Benfica and Porto being the interest that the player is talking about at the moment.

“Yes, I've a proposal from AS Roma,” Sporza.be quotes the Serbia international as saying. ”I do not know if I will accept it. Roma are a good team. I know Rudi Garcia well, he's a good coach."

"Together with my agent I will choose the best solution for my career. I will announce my new club soon. In addition to the interest of AS Roma, Benfica and Porto are also very interested.”
