Swans make bid for Wycombe defender?

Swansea City are being reported as having made a bid for Wycombe defender Joe Low who of course has two Welsh caps to his name.

The report – coming from Pete O’Rourke who tweeted on Sunday evening that the Swans have made a bid for the player who has scored four goals for the Chairboys this season as they compete at the top end of the League One table and are serious promotion candidates.

Cardiff-born Joe is the son of former Northampton and Cheltenham midfielder Josh Low.  At 6’5″ he would certainly add height to the Swans defence and had loan spells at Dorchester, Frome, Yate and Eastleigh before making his debut for Bristol City in November 2022 and a move to Wycombe followed soon after in January 2023.

Last February he was the interest of a rumoured “substantial” bid from Blackpool – reported as well by O’Rourke.   Any move for Low could mean that the Swans are looking for a longer term replacement for Harry Darling with whom they are yet to reach contract agreement although speculation is this could change in the coming week or so.   Whether Low would come to SA1 to compete against Darling and international team mate Ben Cabango remains to be seen.

Time will of course, as it always does, tell.
