Swansea City to bid for Kolbeinn Sigthorsson

Swansea City will look to sign Icelandic international striker Kolbeinn Sigthorsson from Ajax this month as a replacement for Wilfried Bony, who will complete a transfer from the Swans to Man City.

Sigthorsson has found himself fallen down the pecking order in recent weeks at Ajax and is now said to be looking for a move to the Premier League. QPR had been linked with a transfer for the forward.

However, Icelandic midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson has recommended that his club buy his fellow countryman to replace Bony.

Sigthorsson would be allowed to leave the Dutch giants for a fee of around 8.5 million euros.
