Swansea handed survival boost as Renato Sanches returns from hamstring problem after rehabilitation at parent club Bayern Munich

Renato Sanches returned to Swansea on Tuesday after recovering from a serious hamstring problem that has kept him out of action since January.

The on-loan midfielder, who has made 15 appearances for Carlos Carvalhal's struggling side this season, has been back at parent club Bayern Munich undergoing rehabilitation.

But he was back at the Premier League club's Fairwood base on Tuesday, where he will be assessed by medical staff ahead of a return to first-team action.
