Swansea want to sign Leicester midfielder Andy King permanently if they beat the drop.

The Swans took Welsh international King on loan from Leicester on deadline day.

King opted to quit the Foxes after finding game time limited under Claude Puel.

He has since made four appearances, scoring once, as Carlos Carvalhal’s Swansea have climbed to 14th.

Now they are looking to tie him down permanently this summer with fellow central midfielder Ki Sung-yueng set to quit on a free while crocked Leroy Fer could be out until Christmas and Sam Clucas has been moved out wide.

The Foxes are likely to demand up to £6million for ex-trainee King, who played 388 times over a decade.

The popular star’s time included winning titles in League One, the Championship and Premier League.
