Swansea City enter race to sign Blackpool's Matt Phillips

Swansea City have reportedly set their sights on bringing Blackpool winger Matt Phillips to the Liberty Stadium this summer.

The 21-year-old has been linked with a switch away from Bloomfield Road following the Seasiders' 2-1 defeat to West Ham United in the playoff final last weekend.

It is understood that the Swans are willing to offer Stephen Dobbie, who is on loan at Blackpool, as part of a deal to capture Phillips, according to The Express.

Phillips is also thought to have attracted interest from newly-promoted Premier League side Reading.
