Swansea City are wrapping up a deal for Östersund FK attacker Modou Barrow.

The Swedish club have announced Barrow will move to Swansea this week.

Barrow will travel on Thursday to Wales for his medical ahead of signing terms with the Swans.

"It is a great achievement for Modou and of course for our entire club that a player goes to a team in the world's best soccer league, the Premier League. It is sensational," said ÖFK chairman Daniel Kindberg.

"There are many who speculate about how much this deal is worth to ÖFK. We will not comment on any of the content of the deal. It's part of the business agreement."
