Swansea coach Curtis admits Gomis Marseille deal close

Swansea City striker Bafetimbi Gomis is on the brink of signing for Marseille.

Gomis could complete his move to Marseille "within days", according to Swans coach Alan Curtis.

"Something could well be on the horizon," Curtis told BBC Wales Sport.

"He's still contracted to us but you would assume something within the next few days, or weeks certainly, something would happen with Bafe leaving the club."

Gomis scored seven goals in 35 appearances last season and would be the third forward to depart Swansea this summer.

Portuguese striker Eder has moved to Lille and Italian Alberto Paloschi has joined Atalanta.
