Welsh giants Swansea City are plotting a swoop for Feyenoord midfielder Jordy Clasie, but it remains to be seen whether the Premier League club can persuade the Rotterdam giants to sell.
Clasie helped Feyenoord to a second place finish in the Eredivisie this season and as a result they will play Champions League football in 2014/15.
Swansea meanwhile finished 12th in the Premier League this term following a turbulent season during which they sacked Michael Laudrup as manager.
Now, firmly in the thick of summer transfer planning, Swansea want Clasie, according to Dutch magazine Voetbal International.
