Swansea City boss Garry Monk has challenged Nelson Oliveira to prove himself at Leicester City.

The Portugal international is set to replace injured frontman Bafetimbi Gomis when the Swans take on Leicester City at the King Power Stadium.

"He's had to be patient, his time has been limited, but he's in a situation now where he has his chance," said Monk. " He's shown a good attitude and good quality since he's been here so I'm looking for him to step up.

"He does well in training every day, he's a hard worker and a nice lad. If he gets his chance now in the remaining six games I really hope he takes it and it's an opportunity for him in these games to really show us what he can do."
