Swansea City 'weigh up January move for Kasey Palmer'

Swansea City are reportedly interested in signing Bristol City midfielder Kasey Palmer on loan.

The 23-year-old joined the Robins on a permanent deal during the summer having failed to make the breakthrough at Chelsea, where he left without a first-team appearance to his name.

Palmer has contributed one goal and three assists in 19 appearances for Bristol City this season, but the midfielder's future at Ashton Gate is currently being called into question.

According to Sky Sports News, Swansea manager Steve Cooper wants to sign the former Charlton Athletic youngster on loan next month until the end of the 2019-20 campaign.

The report claims that the Swans had been interested in a move for Palmer during the summer before his transfer to Lee Johnson's side was confirmed.

Swansea are currently eighth in the Championship table with 37 points to show from their 24 matches, while Bristol City occupy 10th spot, just two points off the Welsh outfit.
