Swansea City are launching an ambitious bid to sign Leicester's Leonardo Ulloa, as they prepare for the exits of Andre Ayew and Bafetimbi Gomis.

Ulloa is high on Swansea's list of striker targets with head coach Francesco Guidolin ready to make an opening offer of around £10million for the Argentinian.

Leicester's £16million capture of Ahmed Musa has threatened to further restrict Ulloa's first-team opportunities in the forthcoming season and Swansea want to offer him a fresh start in south Wales.

Signed from Brighton for an initial fee of £8million in July 2014, Ulloa was a key player under Nigel Pearson but grew frustrated at a lack of chances last season, starting only seven Premier League games.
