Here's your round-up of all the latest Swansea City news for Tuesday, June 27.
Swans knocked back again in Key chase
Swansea City have reportedly had a second compensation offer for full-back Josh Key knocked back by Exeter City.
WalesOnline understands the 24-year-old has been on the radar at SA1 since January, although there's an acceptance they are likely to face stiff competition for his signature.
West Bromwich Albion and Plymouth Argyle have also been mentioned as possible suitors this summer.
Football Insider has claimed the Swans have now knocked been back twice in their pursuit of the player, whose contract is set to run out this summer.
Given his age, Exeter are entitled to compensation should a club want to take him on, unless the player decides to go to Scotland or Europe.
Having submitted two compensation bids, the Swans are now believed to be ready to go to a tribunal if needed.

Indeed, he arguably helped lay down the foundations for the Hatters' astonishing rise to the top flight, but says he's looking forward to starting a new chapter at the Swansea.com Stadium.
"It’s taken a bit of time, but I am excited to get down to work with the project here," he said.
"I really enjoyed my five years at Luton with a good staff and foundation, but I felt this was the best move for my career after speaking to the ownership group and hearing their plans for the future from this point.
“I hope I can come in and have an influence, and get the club into a better place in the next few years.
“The facilities here are of Premier League standard, and so are the staff. I have had a warm welcome, it has been a whistlestop tour, but you can see there is a lot of talent here and if we can mould a team that matches the level of facilities then we won’t be doing too bad.
“I have accumulated a lot of knowledge over the last five years, and I am hopeful of bringing that here and helping us have a clear plan of how we want to recruit, how we want to play and bring through our own players.
“It’s about having an aligned approach, because that provides the best platform for success on and off the field.”
Swansea set for Nathaniel MG Cup debut

Williams completes Scottish move
Partick Thistle has confirmed the signing of Swansea City defender Wasiri Williams on a free transfer.
The 23-year-old is poised to leave the Swans when his contract expires at the end of the month, and has penned two-year deal at Firhill.
Partick Thistle manager Kris Doolan said: "I'm delighted to add Wasiri to the squad and to have him in at Firhill in time for pre-season training starting is even better."
"We know that there will be key areas that we'll have to recruit in this summer and this is the start of the summer business that we're looking to conduct.
"Wasiri is a strong, physical defender who is first and foremost a centre-back which is where we see him playing his football in Maryhill. He’s quick and is good on the ball so I’m sure he’ll slot in seamlessly to the way we want to play this season.”
Davies confirmed at Spurs
Chris Davies has been confirmed as senior assistant coach at Tottenham Hotspur.
Davies was previously identified as a leading contender to succeed Russell Martin as Swansea City boss, but his interest in linking up with new Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou meant the Swans were forced to look elsewhere.
Michael Duff has since taken over, and is currently overseeing the club's pre-season training camp in Spain.
In a statement confirming the Davies' move to north London, Tottenham said: "Chris, who has previously worked on the coaching staff at Swansea City, Liverpool, Celtic and Leicester City, joins as Senior Assistant Coach.
"Our new team of coaching staff will begin work alongside Ange on 1 July."
Bradley sacked
Former Swansea City boss Bob Bradley has been sacked as head coach and sporting director at Major League Soccer side Toronto FC.
Bradley, who was in charge of the Swans for just 85 days before being shown the door in 2016, leaves having won just three of the last 20 games with the Canadian outfit.
“Bob has been a consummate professional with Toronto FC and we thank him for his passion and tireless work during his time here. We are all disappointed that we were not able to achieve the results we expected,” said Toronto FC President Bill Manning in a statement.
