Jason Levien says Swansea City were going to make West Brom's Karlan Grant their top earner before it all went wrong

Swansea City co-owner Jason Levien says they were set to make West Brom's Karlan Grant their highest-paid player before the deal for the striker fell through at the last minute.

On a frantic deadline day which ultimately ended in huge levels of disappointment in Landore, the Baggies pulled the plug on Grant's loan move to south Wales despite all the necessary agreements being in place.
