Swansea look set to sign Newcastle's Wayne Routledge in £2m deal
SWANSEA are set to sign Wayne Routledge from Newcastle for £2m.
Swansea have had two bids rejected but have now met Newcastle’s asking price and Routledge is set to agree a £25,000-a-week deal.
Swansea are still attempting to sign Nottingham Forest goalkeeper Lee Camp and had a third bid of £1.8m snubbed on Friday.
Routledge had also been a Forest target but Steve McClaren will now step up his bid to sign Ado Den Haag star Wesley Verhoek.
