Cliftonville boss Breslin says Swansea can still beat Liverpool, Everton for Donnelly

Cliftonville manager Tommy Breslin feels Swansea City remain favourites for Rory Donnelly.

The teenage striker is set to leave the Northern Irish club in January, with Swansea, Everton and Liverpool all confirmed admirers.

Breslin said: "Rory said that he was impressed by Swansea and by what Brendan Rodgers had to say.

"He said the facilities were good and that there was a great team spirit with no egos. The Northern Irish link with Brendan probably helped too.

"We expect the deal to be completed. We've got a fixture on Boxing Day and I'm planning for it without Rory."
