Report: Swansea City planning Jordan Rhodes swoop

By , Reporter
A report suggests that Swansea City are lining up a move for Blackburn Rovers striker Jordan Rhodes to replace Wilfried Bony at the Liberty Stadium.

Swansea City are reportedly planning a swoop for Blackburn Rovers striker Jordan Rhodes.

The Swans are in the market for a new forward following the sale of Wilfried Bony to Manchester City for £28m.

Garry Monk has outlined the 24-year-old as his top target to replace the Ivorian at the Liberty Stadium, but will need to launch a bid in the region of £11m to acquire his services from Rovers.

Swansea and Blackburn are due to play each other in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Saturday, and the Daily Mail claims that talks are scheduled to take place regarding a possible transfer after the match at Ewood Park.

Rhodes has scored nine goal in 26 appearances for Gary Bowyer's men this season.
