More Transfer Links For Swans
The Swans have been linked with Crystal Palace winger Lee Chung-yong despite the words of Paul Clement yesterday suggesting that our transfer dealing was just about completed when Jordan Ayew makes his move to the Liberty.
That, it seems, is not enough to stop the paper speculation on what may happen and a move for Chung-Yong is suggested although if there is any truth in it then it looks like Birmingham City will be his final destination.
Burnley are also reportedly interested in the player who joined Palace from Bolton in 2015 but has failed to nail down any form of regular first team place and is deemed now to be surplus to requirements at Selhurst Park.
Other names also linked are Aston Villa and Fulham but the Guardian report that Birmingham are the team most likely to complete a deal before the window closes at 11pm this evening.

Gwyn’s Eye View : Swansea City v MillwallGlyn is back with his favourite stats as we build up to the last game of the season. That comes in the form of Millwall who it seems are close to selling their requested 1,148 allocation, so its down to the Jack Army to do their bit this bank holiday weekend.
The fate today’s Swansea footballers would never have to endure Swansea City bring this season to a close on Saturday with a home game against Millwall. However, what about those bygone days when footballers had no choice but to go down the pit after their career ended, or open a toy shop, pub or retrain ? That thought would petrify todays modern footballer.
Brave Swans in memorable game at Carrow Road It was a pulsating game to watch and very much one of my favourite away games of the season. The Swans looked an entirely different side to that we saw at Middlesbrough when it is clear a catalyst for commitment was agreed behind the scenes at Swansea City. To a man every player grafted and
wore the shirt with pride. To see the players really acknowledge the Swans support at Carrow Road this afternoon was emotional.
Swansea reject Cullen contract and trigger one year option Liam Cullen has had his request for a new contract dismissed by Swansea City after discussions broke down last week. The lowest paid ‘senior’ player at the club ( he is twenty five) asked for a better contract increasing his £3,500 a week to around £7,000 a week over three years.
