Swansea City are planning to bring Welsh midfielder Joe Allen back to the club from Liverpool, according to SkySports.
Liverpool signed Allen from Swansea in 2012 for a fee around £15million. He has only a year remaining on his current Liverpool deal and it is expected that the Reds will sell him if the right offer is put on the table.
The 26-year-old failed to cement his place at Anfield Stadium but has been a vital asset for the Merseyside club.
Allen had a great time with the Wales squad in European Championship 2016, where he helped his side to reach the semifinals. He was also named in the UEFA Euro team of tournament.
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has told Allen that he wants him to stay but cannot guarantee the playing time which he demands.
Allen made only eight starts under Klopp last season in Premier League.
With Swansea looking to bolster their midfield this summer, they are likely to invest £50million in the transfer market.
Swans boss Francesco Guidolin has already signed Leroy Fer, Mike Van der Horn and Tyler Reid so far this summer. Currently, the squad is in USA for the preseason tour.
