Franck Tabanou seals Swansea City transfer

Swansea City have completed the signing of defender Franck Tabanou from Saint-Etienne for an undisclosed fee.

The talented left-back joins the South Welsh outfit on a three-year deal, following two seasons at Saint-Etienne.

"I wanted to come to Swansea because I believe we are the perfect match," he told the club website.

"I was aware of Swansea's interest in me for a while, but unfortunately it didn't happen back in January. Once I spoke to the manager and the chairman my mind was made up because I realised they really wanted me."

Tabanou becomes the Swans signing second signing for the summer following the arrival of Andrew Ayew on a free transfer from Marseille.
