Swansea City are reportedly close to agreeing a deal for Renato Sanches.

Paul Clement, Manager of Swansea City adjusts his suit during the Premier League match between Crystal Palace and Swansea City at Selhurst Park on August 26, 2017 in London, England.

According to the reports from Sky Sport, Swansea City are close to agreeing a loan deal for Bayern Munich midfielder Renato Sanches.

The report adds that Swansea will pay a loan fee to Bayern Munich for the Portuguese international, with the fee to be in excess of £2 million.

The 20-year-old midfielder joined Munich last season from Benfica, but has struggled to get regular games under Carlo Ancelotti.

Sanches will be a terrific signing for the Swans. He will bring depth and quality to the side, and his signing will not only boost Swansea’s chances of survival but also perform well above expectations.
