Chelsea defender Bashir Humphreys is ready to join Swansea City.

Humphreys has agreed to join the Swans on a season-long loan, says football.london.

Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino is short of central defensive options, but has agreed to release Humphreys.

Talks between Humphreys and Swans boss Michael Duff have been held.

Humphreys featured in all five of Chelsea's pre-season matches out in America, where he played almost 300 minutes in total.
