Reports surfaced earlier today that the Swans were looking at Liverpool left back Luke Chambers in a loan deal as Michael Duff looks to strengthen his squad ahead of the transfer window closing on Friday.
The left back position has long since been a problem area for the Swans and whilst a loan signing is probably not really going to solve the problem long term it does solve a short term position for this season if we can pull off the loan deal.
Chambers spent the second half of last season out on loan with Scottish side Kilmarnock, and was recently linked with German giants Bayer Leverkusen but a move to Germany looks off the card as Leverkusen want a loan with an option to buy which is said to be something Liverpool are not keen on.
Chambers, who can also play at centre-back, is highly regarded by the Reds and signed his first professional contract in 2021 before signing new and improved contracts in both July 2022 and May 2023.
For an insight into Chambers take the words of Killie manager Derek McInnes who said this after the left back made his debut for them back in February โ36 years ago I made my first senior debut and I certainly didnโt play as good as him!โ said the coach. โHe was outstanding. He looks about 13 but he plays like a 30-year-old! Heโs so mature, heโs so calm with his defending, his decision making on the ball was very good, his choice of passes, his choice of crosses, none more so than for Dannyโs goal and heโs fitted in brilliantly.
โFor an 18-year-old kid weโve been really impressed by him. Not just his ability but the type person he is, heโs fitted right in.
โWeโre delighted and pleased that Liverpool and Luke decided to choose us over others. It was a very impressive start from him and hopefully thereโs far more to come, heโs made a big impression. We said to him before the game, โjust play the way youโve trained the last two days.โ Since heโs joined us, heโs impressed us.โ
Heโs nineteen and weโre borrowing him .That sounds about right .
should be looking at permanant signings first loan deals should only be fall back options
