Huw Jenkins has confirmed that the Swans have spoken to Chelsea about Scott Sinclair

The Swansea City Chairman confirmed that the Swans are interested in landing Sinclair - who worked under Brendan Rodgers at Stamford Bridge.

However, there was no hint that any deal was close to conclusion as he told the Evening Post "We have spoken to Chelsea about Scott

"Brendan obviously knows him pretty well from his time at Chelsea and we hope that could play a part in Scott's decision.

"The next step is to try to make contact with the player. If something was to happen, though, we're not sure whether it would take a few days or a few weeks."

The Chairman also confirmed that there had been no further contact with Blackpool when he added "I've not spoken to anyone at Blackpool since we turned down their offer

"I'm not sure if they will phone us again regarding Angel, but he is a player we are not looking to sell.

"Angel is a great guy and pro, and he's a good person to have around the club.

"But we want to give Brendan the best opportunity of reaching our objectives this season and that doesn't mean selling players like Angel."
