Carlos Carvalhal needs to target a striker for Swansea – would any of these Everton, Leicester or Liverpool options be any good?
Carlos Carvalhal, manager of Sheffield Wednesday, looks on during the Sky Bet Championship match against Bolton Wanderers.
New Swansea City manager Carlos Carvalhal has quite the task on his hands to keep the Welsh side in the Premier League.
The Swans are currently bottom of the table after 20 games and have scored the fewest goals in the entire division with 11 so far.
Therefore a new striker surely has to be a priority for Carvalhal in the upcoming January transfer window, so here are three potential options from the English top flight.

There is plenty of speculation that the Liverpool forward will leave Anfield on loan in the new year, with Sky Sports reporting Newcastle United, Stoke City, West Bromwich Albion and West Ham United are all interested.
Despite having previously shown his class in the division with Burnley, Ings has only played 14 first team matches since joining the Reds in 2015 after suffering two serious knee injuries, though.
