Tottenham midfielder Tom Carroll set for £9m move to Swansea as Martin Olsson emerges as a target for relegation-threatened Swans

Swansea are edging closer to the signing of Tom Carroll after agreeing an initial fee for the Tottenham midfielder.

Spurs have accepted a basic offer of around £5million for Carroll but want the overall deal to be worth around £9m when add-ons are included.

That is more than the bid Swansea have currently put on the table but talks are ongoing, with both clubs confident a resolution will be found.
