Swansea look to have joined the race for Matej Vydra with the striker available for a move from Derby County this summer.
The Whites have already been linked with the Championship marksman and the Rams are willing to let him go for the right price after spending big in recent years and not getting promoted.
Naturally, though, we’re not the only side looking at him with Dominic Shawcross confirming Swansea’s interest in the forward earlier on today:
Leeds and Swansea both shown interest in Matej Vydra at Derby. Can leave for the right price.

The Verdict
Vydra is certainly a player I’d like to see at the club this season coming.
He’s a proven scorer in the Championship and knows how to perform at the sharp end of the table.
He’s got everything we need in an attacker and, let’s be honest, we should be able to beat Swansea to his signature.
Let’s see if we can do exactly that, then, with the Rams seemingly just waiting for a bid.
