3 players Swansea City could sign this January

Swans are in need of reinforcements

Swansea City’s Premier League fate is in the balance.

The Swans are rock bottom of the Premier League and have picked up just four wins from 22 games so far this season.

Their top-flight status could depend on which players Carlos Carvalhal brings to the Liberty Stadium this month.

With reinforcements required, the Coral News Team look at three potential targets for the South Club.

Diafra Sakho 

West Ham United striker Diafra Sakho has been strongly linked with a move to the Liberty. The Senegal international has been out of favour at the London Stadium for some time.

He has yet to start a game for the Hammers in the Premier League this season. However, his goalscoring statistics are still good. The 28-year-old has bagged six goals in all competitions so far this season.

In total the 6ft 1in ace has netted 24 goals in 71 games for the East Londoners. That’s a solid return for a player who has not always been a starter – especially this season.

With the Swans desperate for goals and experience up-front, a hungry Sakho could be a key arrival if the South Wales club are to avoid relegation.

Daniel Opare

Augsburg’s Daniel Opare is rumoured to be available for £3m. He can play at left-back or right-back and likes to go forward with the ball. For a Swans side that are the league’s lowest scorers, his attacking impetus could be timely.

The Ghanaian international is a wanted man, though. Stoke City, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Leicester City are also in the market for him. And with good reason too.
