Swansea City are close to agreeing a deal with Falkirk for left back Tony Gallacher.
The highly-rated teenager was the subject of a £750,000 offer from Swansea last year but Falkirk rejected it as they held out for bigger offers.
Now, though, with finances stretched, Falkirk are understood to be willing to accept much less for the 18-year-old, who has represented Scotland at Under 19 level.
Gallacher's performances have attracted scouts from the likes of Liverpool, Manchester United, Rangers and Barcelona to Falkirk Stadium but they have yet to make an offer.
