The Guardian say Swansea City are interested in signing Diafra Sakho from West Ham but a deal to take Andre Ayew back to the Welsh club is seen as unlikely.

It comes after reports linking both strikers with a possible move to the Liberty Stadium – and West Ham with Swans duo Alfie Mawson and Ki Sung-yueng.

There has been speculation that a swap deal could be agreed during this month’s transfer window.

The Guardian say West Ham are keen to offload Ayew and Swansea would be interested in taking him back but that his wages are a barrier to a deal.

Meanwhile, The Sun say Borussia Monchengladbach have offered West Ham £20m for Reece Oxford.

It comes after the 19-year-old defender was recalled from his loan spell at the German club, who are reportedly determined to sign him on a permanent basis.

The Sun also ssay Arsenal have received a boost in their apparent bid to sign Schalke’s Leon Goretzka after it emerged that reports he has agreed a move to Bayern Munich proved to be wide of the mark.

And The Sun have picked up on reports in Arturo Vidal’s native Chile claiming that Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has spoken to the Bayern Munich midfielder on the telephone about a possible move to Stamford Bridge.
