  18. Sheehan eyes new Swansea signing before Boro

    Swansea City hope to seal at least one more signing before Saturday's Championship opener at Middlesbrough.

    The Swans have so far added Cameron Burgess, Ricardo Santos, Ethan Galbraith, Zeidane Inoussa and Bobby Wales while Melker Widell is with them after being loaned back to Aalborg BK after signing in January.

    However, Swansea's options are limited at centre-back and they are in the market for a striker.

    Asked if a new signing was on the cards ahead of the trip to Middlesbrough, head coach Alan Sheehan replied: "All going well, yeah.

    "We are in talks with players, but we are not going to just sign anyone, it's got to be the right fit for the football club in order to make us better.

    "We've made good quality signings and maybe will make a couple more before the end of the window."

    Swansea's squad remains thin after a long summer leavers list that included Harry Darling, Kyle Naughton, Joe Allen and Lewis O'Brien.

    "There has been a lot of change, we have done good business, but we will also need to bring in more," said Sheehan.

    "There's a recruitment strategy with Adam Worth onto us daily. We are as a football club quite active to bring in more players."

    Swansea have been linked with Wycombe striker Richard Kone, who was left out of their squad for the League One opener at Bradford.

    "There is a lot of noise about that, but it's not something I would comment on," said Sheehan.

  20. Cardiff target four signings with keeper 'coming in'

    Cardiff City are aiming to make four signings before the transfer window closes, with a move for Copenhagen goalkeeper Nathan Trott seemingly close.

    The Bluebirds are yet to sign anyone this summer but are reportedly lining up the 26-year-old former England Under-20 international, who started his career at West Ham.

    Chairman Mehmet Dalman appeared to confirm that move was imminent when he was asked about the club's transfer dealings.

    "We've got a goalkeeper coming in. And we are looking to add another three players in this window," said Dalman.

    "I can't speak for Brian [Barry-Murphy, head coach], but I think he wanted to have a really good look at what he's got before he made any decisions. I think he has a pretty good idea of what he wants.

    "He is really excited by what he's got here already. Genuinely excited about it."

    Asked how close those signings were to being completed, Dalman added: "One is very close, but we have a problem in getting it over the line, which can be solved.

    "So we want to buy a goalkeeper and one other, then the other two will probably be loans.

    "We don't really need that many new players. I think the squad is pretty good."

    Following their relegation from the Championship last season, Cardiff started life in League One - and Barry-Murphy's tenure - with a 2-1 win over Peterborough United on Saturday.

    Speaking after the game, the new head coach said he hoped to have a signing completed before Thursday's trip to Port Vale.

    "Well, I said that definitely before this [Peterborough] game, so I was held to certain things about the previous press conference," he said.

    "I'm just a little bit nervous about saying definitely before Thursday... but I would say definitely before Thursday."

    Cardiff have seen 11 senior players leave this summer but have managed to hold on to first-teamers such as Yousef Salech and Callum Robinson.

    Asked about their prospects of holding on to the attacking duo, Dalman simply said: "They're not going anywhere."
