Sounds like they’re determined to make up for the January transfer window failure by getting things done early.
Swansea have also agreed a deal to sign Scotland U21 striker Bobby Wales from Kilmarnock for £300k on a four year deal.
Coupled with the Melker Widell transfer and things are moving along quickly.

There are some I've missed out on purpose. Likes of Darling, tjoe-a-on and others out on loan who are either not pushing first team or future is undecided.

Looking at the above there's plenty of holes to fill.

O'Brien and Darling are the standout obvious ones to replace.
 
Obviously a back up keeper.

Another 2 CB’s

A RB/LB

Another 2/3 midfielders

2 wingers

1 striker

Obviously can’t see some of the attackers still being here like Ginnelly and Bianchini
 
Ginnelly I still don't think will ever recover from his injury woes.

Bianchini just isn't good enough sadly. A lot of money wasted there and a lesson learnt on the decision making behind that one as he never looked great at the club he was at before us.

2 wingers - 1 hopefully done. An upgrade needed on Ronald. He should never have been able to play so many games as he has given his performances.

I'd like us to get 2 strikers.

We are attacking heavy yet that's a major area that needs work. Ginnelly and Bianchini can go. Cooper isn't good enough imo and Ronald too.

Then we look low on numbers behind in defence and midfield.

Busy busy the recruitment team will be, no wonder they're starting so early.

This Swedish winger that’s coming in. Who’s he gonna replace? Surly not Eom? I reckon eom offers us more than Ronald. But it would be good to have competition
 
Doesn't sound like a likely one to me, that.

I expect we'll see a tonne of these now and the vast majority of them turn out to be miles off and/or agents getting their clients out there.

Not sure if there’s actual any truth in it but there was a swans fan who seems almost certain O’Brien returns back on loan next season. Have you heard anything or do you think it is unlikely? Cheers
