The top transfer line today surrounds Swansea City and Atletico Madrid's Kevin Gameiro.

It was reported yesterday that the Liberty club's interest in the French forward has been 'rebuffed'.

But fresh claims today state Swansea are in 'advanced talks' with the striker.

Translated, the above tweet from French journalist Romain Collet-Gauddin reads: "Negotiations advanced between Swansea and Gameiro. Swansea asked 30 M € on the table. Ongoing discussions!"

Meanwhile, respected Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio has reported that Andre Ayew is close to making a return to SA1.

He said: "André Ayew is close from Swansea. The Ghanaian forward has played a not really enthusiastic first half in the Premier League with West Ham as he’s scored 3 goals in 18 games.

"It would be a return to Swansea for him as he’s already played for the Swans in the 2015-2016 season: 34 games and 12 goals in Premier League."

And according to reports in Italy (which refer to reports in Wales), there is 'strong interest' from Swansea in AC Milan striker Andre Silva.

Make of that what you will.

And finally, Max Meyer, Schalke's much sought-after attacker, has been linked with a move away from the Bundesliga side after rejecting a new contract offer.

Sporting director Christian Heidel says he hopes the star stays at the club.

He said: "The first offer has been rejected, he will receive a new one.

"And then Max will decide, yes or no. I cannot do more than try to keep the boy with this money which is at my disposal. If that does not work, it has nothing to do with Christian Heidel, but with the economic opportunities we have at Schalke.

"We have to make sure that this club is profitable."
