Latest : Jamal Lowe now a Swansea player for the season
Latest firm news on a player coming in was Jamal Lowe, he has agreed to return to the Swans in what was initially on a short term loan deal from AFC Bournemouth.
The opportunity to extend that deal with the Swans was taken almost immediately The Swans are paying the majority of the players wages. Lowe left the Swans when determined surplus to requirements by then new boss Russell Martin. He joined the Cherries for 2.5 million pounds that summer. Due to the initial short term deal the Swans offered to take the player until the end of the season when he becomes a free agent. This is now agreed. Jamal’s Cherries days are now over.
Initially his move south looked a success but a loan at QPR followed and now with forty Cherries appearances and eight goals he is back at the Swansea.Com Stadium. Lowe played in two premier league games last season.
