Swansea City are closing in on the signings of Bersant Celina and Barrie McKay ahead of the start of the Championship season.

The two wingers are in South Wales and are understood to have undergone medicals ahead of sealing their moves from Manchester City and Nottingham Forest respectively.

They will become Swansea's fourth and fifth signings of the summer, following the captures of Yan Dhanda, Joel Asoro and Jordi Govea.

Kosovo international Celina spent last season on loan at Ipswich Town and scored eight goals in 38 appearances for the Tractor Boys.

He will cost Swansea an initial £3million, with the deal potentially rising to £4million depending on various clauses as the 21-year-old makes the switch from the Premier League champions.

Scottish winger McKay, meanwhile, found the net five times in 28 games for Forest last term. The 23-year-old is set to join in a deal worth over £500,000.

The Rangers product had been in line to join Greek club Olympiacos earlier in the summer only for the deal to fall through. He won a solitary cap for Scotland against France in 2016.

The deals are expected to be confirmed reasonably quickly and will leave Swansea well-stocked in terms of their wide resources, suggesting there could be exits in those positions with the likes of Wayne Routledge, Nathan Dyer, Luciano Narsingh, Jefferson Montero, Daniel James and Asoro already on the books.

It remains to be seen whether they will go straight into the squad for the Championship opener at Sheffield United.
