Swansea considering a bid for Huddersfield’s Philip Billing, valued at around £10m.
The Swans’ transfer business has been slow so far this summer, with the £11m signing of Roque Mesa from Las Palmas their only new addition to date.

Jack Cork has also left for Burnley, while Gylfi Sigurdsson is looking increasingly likely to join Everton and in turn, manager Paul Clement will have a large cash windfall to spend on new players.
Billing plays a little deeper than Sigurdsson, but did score two goals and provide two assists in 28 matches for Huddersfield in all competitions last season as they won promotion from the Championship.
Signed from Esbjerg in his native Denmark in 2013, the 21-year-old first broke into the Terriers’ first team in 2015/16 and has since made 42 appearances for the Yorkshire outfit.
Billing still has three years left to run on his current contract at the John Smith’s Stadium and the club are reluctant to sell, hence the inflated price-tag.
