Planet Swans ArchivesThe website claims that the Swans are poised to beat off competition from the likes of Nottingham Forest and Leicester for the 26 year old winger's signature.
A fee was agreed with Newcastle last week, believed to be in the region of £1.8m, for the pacy wideman who finished last season on loan at QPR.
Rumours surfaced recently suggesting that Swansea were unwilling to match the Newcastle man's wage demands.
But Swansea look to still be closing in on a deal for the highly rated 26 year old, who boss Brendan Rodgers has identified as a top transfer target.
