Swansea City 'close to landing Real Madrid defender Jordi'

Swansea City are allegedly close to signing Real Madrid defender Jordi.

The Welsh outfit are planning to use the 19-year-old Ecuadorian as backup for Martin Olsson, according to The Sun.

The Real academy product is said to be on the brink of becoming the Swans' second summer recruit, with the Championship outfit having already signed former Liverpool youngster Yan Dhanda during the current transfer window.

Swansea are expected to overhaul their squad this summer, having been relegated from the Premier League on the final day of last season.

Reports elsewhere suggest that the Swans are close to bringing in FK Ostersunds boss Graham Potter as their new manager.
