Swansea City face a fresh battle to keep hold of Wilfried Bony. The Daily Mail says scouts from Premier League leaders Chelsea and second-placed Manchester City were at Anfield on Monday night to watch Swansea star Wilfried Bony in action.

City's director of football Txiki Begiristain and head scout Gary Worthington were both in attendance to see the Ivorian play live, while Chelsea's chief European scout, Mick Doherty, was also in the stands.

Bony, who has netted eight league goals for Garry Monk's side this season, failed to score as Liverpool ran out comfortable 4-1 winners.

He has scored 20 Premier League goals for Swansea in 2014 - more than any other player in the division.
