Defender Franck Tabanou to return to Swansea City in January?

Defender Franck Tabanou has reportedly indicated that he would like to cut short his loan spell with Granada.

In June 2015, Swansea City paid Saint-Etienne a fee of £3.5m for the full-back but he is yet to make a Premier League appearance for the Welsh club.

After a loan spell back at his former side, he was then allowed to join Granada on a season-long deal but after playing just twice in La Liga, it appears that the 27-year-old wants to end his time in Spain.

According to French publication But!, Tabanou wants to return to his parent club to assess his options but another period with Saint-Etienne could be a possibility.

It has been claimed that manager Christophe Galtier will be in the market for a full-back when the transfer window opens at the turn of the year.
