Graham Potter’s Championship outfit Swansea City look set to trim their squad in the January transfer window with duo seemingly leaving the Liberty Stadium.

Two of Swansea City’s highest earners could be cashed in on during the January transfer window.

That is according to Wales Online, who believe that Luciano Narsingh and Wilfried Bony are on borrowed time at the Liberty Stadium.

Swansea paid PSV Eindhoven £4 million to sign Narsingh in January 2017 but the speedy Dutchman has struggled to bring his Eredivisie form to British shores and now finds himself well out of favour in South Wales.

The 28-year-old has not been included in a single match-day squad all season with the likes of Daniel James, Nathan Dyer and Wayne Routledge ahead of him in the pecking order.

Narsingh, who Wales Online claim is picking up £50,000 a week in wages, saw a £2 million move to AEK Athens collapse in the summer due to a failure to agree personal terms.

The report adds that Swansea’s best-paid player, Wilfried Bony, could also bid farewell just a year-and-a-half after rejoining the club after a torrid spell at Manchester City.

The Ivorian centre-forward recently returned after nine months out with a cruciate knee ligament injury, but Wales Online reports his wages are seen as being unsustainable for a club playing Championship football.
