Swansea City are reportedly hoping to get rid of Wayne Routledge, Nathan Dyer and Luciano Narsingh.

With the January transfer window just a few weeks away, Swansea City are already drawing up plans to trim the fat from Graham Potter’s squad.

According to the Mirror (30 November, page 63), there are three players the Swans are hoping to get rid of in the New Year – Luciano Narsingh, Wayne Routledge and Nathan Dyer.

The fact that Narsingh could bid farewell to South Wales is little surprise given that the speedy Dutchman has not made a single first-team appearance all season.

Wales Online reported earlier in November that the former PSV winger, who is understood to be earning around £50,000 a week, saw a £2 million move to AEK Athens fall through in the summer.

Dyer and Routledge, meanwhile, are two of Swansea’s modern day legends.

Dyer arrived in 2009 when the club was playing Championship football and scored twice in the 5-0 League Cup final win against Bradford City, sealing the Swans’ first major trophy.

33-year-old Routledge has made over 200 appearances since joining from Newcastle United seven years ago but, like Dyer, has fallen down the pecking order thanks to the arrival of Barrie McKay and Bersant Celina and the emergence of Daniel James.
