Olivier NTcham will be in Istanbul on Wednesday to sign for a Turkish club Sansomspor who were recently promoted to their premier league . Deal agreed with the Swans , I think he's going for £1..5 million . This leaves us with a gap in the squad as Cooper and Paterson are the only 2 fit attacking inside forwards with Walsh still a way off fitness.

Gyllfi Siggurdson should be available now he's got off his court case!

I guess the Reading game was Ntcham’s last chance to convince Duff he had what it takes. Apparently not so much. Being sent to Turkey

Maybe Duff sees Ginnelly as a #10

I was just thinking that myself!

It seems that the news about Pedersen are nothing more than rumours. I've just read an article in the Cologne newspaper Kolner Stadt-Anzeiger and they say that Cologne FC have received no offers for Pedersen and that he will not be taking his medical in Swansea today. Which is good news because what they are saying about him is not a good read. He suffered a serious muscle injury last winter and is a third option for Cologne if he stays there. Not only is he behind a new 28-year-old left-back signed from St. Pauli, but he is also behind a 19-year-old youngster from the Cologne academy. Neither the Cologne manager nor the Cologne Stadt-Anzeiger think much of Pedersen, the latter even calling him "rustic", whatever that means. It is said that he is not very good at going forward, which is a big disadvantage for a full-back/wing-back.

Swansea's asking price is reportedly £4.29 million, but Samsunspor are only willing to pay £2.57 million for Ntcham.

Maybe compromise at £3.5 million? It's a decent fee if he doesn't figure in Duff''s plans. Mind you, Ntcham at his best is a class player but he's not often at his best and I suspect that Duff isn't happy with his fitness levels that won't fit in with a higher intensity game plan.

We have Cooper, we don’t need a ntcham. Since we got Ntcham on a free, whatever we get at this point should be profit.

Both Oli Cooper and Cullen are perfect players for Duff's high-pressing/gegen-pressing style of football. They work hard, they can tackle, and they can run. He should use them more. And Josh Thomas should be around the first team squad.

Josh Thomas goes on loan for the season to L1 Port Vale …. Swansea City striker Josh Thomas seals loan move to Port Vale | Swansea

A potential gem … wishing him a block buster season

Ntcham is gone.
