Swansea City dealt Nathan Dyer boost

Swansea City have welcomed the news that Nathan Dyer did not break his ankle as first feared against Norwich City on Sunday.

Having scored the opener in the 1-1 draw at Carrow Road, Dyer was taken off on a stretcher while receiving oxygen after a collision with Sebastien Bassong left him requiring lengthy medical attention.

However, Swansea have revealed that Dyer's injury is not as serious as they first thought, but they cannot come to any conclusions until the winger undergoes more scans on Monday.

The club posted on their official Twitter page: "INJURY UPDATE: Initial x-ray shows no obvious break to Dyer's ankle. However, he will have further scans tomorrow before final diagnosis."

Gary Hooper equalised just before half time for Norwich.
