Swansea City are tracking Mansfield Town player, twenty five year old Davis Keillor-Dunn who has been on fire in front of goal this season. The Swans are by far not the only side to be monitoring the attacking midfielder who can count over ten clubs interested in his services.

Oddly enough Keillor-Dunn’s last two moves have been free transfers. He scored twenty five goals in eighty seven appearances for the Oldham Athketic (below) before they were relegated to non league - and then another five at Burton Albion in nineteen games. However, It has been at Mansfield Town under Nigel Clough where Keillor-Dunn has really flourished. He does have lulls in his career progression but at Field Mill things haven’t stalled at all. This year he has fired in seven goals already.

Obviously League Two is a different landscape to the Championship but the goals for all that are the same size. The concern will be at the age of twenty five, and with a pretty nomadic career behind him is can he cut it at a higher level ? Scoring goals always gets the attention of numerous clubs, especially in the Championship where a few extra goals can mean the difference between a mid table finish and the play offs.

We have been told today that the Swans are very much aware of Dunn and have numerous players in every position that are on their radar for January. ‘The work never stops’ is the mantra these days. Sporting Director Paul Watson along with Josh Marsh in recruitment have around thirty names of players - some who already know of the Swans interest in them. Approaches and contact in the summer by Swansea that weren’t either followed up or are on the back burner continue to be revisited. Players behaviours are continually being ‘checked’ which is a key element to Paul Watson’s recruitment ethic. How Davis Keillor-Dunn fits into that we dont know, but if he’s looking for that big move, and has the off field situation all tied down he could well be someone we hear more of as the new year approaches.
