Davis, 25, looks set to be on the move this summer, with the Championship looking like the Aston Villa man’s likeliest destination
Hull City are working on a deal to bring the attacker to the MKM Stadium. It’s said that the Tigers have agreed a £2million deal for the striker but that personal terms are yet to be agreed upon.
And now, Hull look like they’re facing fresh, and strong competition from Swansea City for the signing of Davis, with Swansea having just netted £10million from Leeds United who’ve snapped up Joel Piroe
The Athletic report that Swansea are in talks with Villa over a potential deal for Davis, who the Swans view as a potential replacement for Piroe
A good replacement?
Replacing Piroe with Davis may be a bit underwhelming for Swans fans. He’d had good and bad spells in Championship loan moves in the past but the idea of Davis scoring the same amount of goals as Piroe seems like a farfetched one.
Still, Davis along with Jerry Yates gives Michael Duff two solid options in attack and between them, they could spearhead a potentially strong Swansea frontline.
And beating Hull to the signing could be tricky. Swansea have some money in the bank and Villa will no doubt just accept the highest offer for Davis, but Hull seem to be a lot further down the line for a potential deal for Davis.
It looks like a two-horse race now and who wins remains to be seen. But Davis certainly looks like he’ll be on the move before September 1st.
The 45-year-old has wasted no time at the Swansea.Com Stadium in trying to mould this squad into one which he can very much call his own, with seven players in and the same number making moves out of South Wales so far in this window.
On the pitch, the Swans have made a slow start to the campaign, with two 1-1 home draws to Birmingham and Coventry, as well as losing 3-2 to West Bromwich Albion.
With limited time left in this summer window, the Swans could look to utilise the Premier League market for deals on players who are currently surplus to requirements, and FLW has chosen five of those.
In an area of the pitch where Swansea find themselves a little lightweight, a return to South Wales for Jamal Lowe may not be beyond the realm of possibility, as Darren Witcoop states he is expected to leave Bournemouth in the coming days.
The 29-year-old scored 14 times in his only season at the club as they reached the play-off final in 2021, before departing. His creativity and goals would only benefit this Swansea side who haven’t quite kicked on so far this season
