A number of Premier League clubs are reportedly preparing to make an approach for Reading midfielder John Swift during the January transfer window.

Reading midfielder John Swift is reportedly attracting interest from a number of Premier League clubs ahead of the January transfer window.

Swift has spent the last five-and-a-half years at the Madejski Stadium, contributing a total of 28 goals from 166 appearances in the Championship.

However, with his contract due to expire at the end of the season, the 26-year-old naturally has an increasing amount of admirers who are keen on his signature.

According to The Star, Wolverhampton Wanderers, Leeds United and Burnley are all contemplating whether to make a cut-price bid at the turn of the year.

Despite Swift arguably being their most important player, the Royals hierarchy will give consideration to a sale after breaching EFL financial regulations.

While Sheffield United are also said to be keen on the Englishman, the Blades are unlikely to edge out top-flight opposition with Swift expected to make the step up to the Premier League.
