SWANSEA TARGET RHODES?

22/01/16

Swansea have made a move to sign Blackburn striker Jordan Rhodes, reports the Daily Mirror.

It is claimed the Premier League side have made an offer for the 25-year-old but the Championship club are holding out for in excess of £10m and even could be as mush as £12m.

Sheffield Wednesday are also thought to be interested in the Scotland international.

How can you be skint with all those transfer fees you've received over the past five years plus being in the PL for 5 seasons. We always hear how frugal you are as a club. Has Huw and the rest of the board been helping themselves to the profits?

Maybe (As was put on this Forum about two years ago) Huw Jenkins is looking at an 'exit' strategy? ;)

Maybe although I would say too much infrastructure and high wages are more likely

Spot on, Swans are skint. Why would they sell Shelvey to a relegation rival otherwise ?
