Swansea are closing in on the signing of Norwich City defender Martin Olsson, sources close to the Premier League club have told ESPN FC.
Swansea have agreed a fee in principle of £5 million for the Norwegian international and he is in line to become Paul Clement's first signing as manager, with talks at advanced stage.
Norwich are willing to sell Olsson to trim their wage bill, while Swansea have held a long-term interest in the left-back and came close to signing him two years ago only for the player to stay in East Anglia.
Clement is desperate to bolster his side's defensive options to shore up the team's leaky rearguard with Swansea sitting second from bottom of the table.
