Swansea in West Ham talks for Valencia

Swansea City are in loan talks for West Ham striker Enner Valencia.

The London Evening Standard says the 26-year-old has slipped down the Hammers' pecking order following the summer arrivals of Simone Zaza, Ashley Fletcher and Jonathan Calleri.

Swansea chairman Huw Jenkins raised the prospect of "one or two loans" on Tuesday night, and it is understood that Valencia has headed to south Wales for talks.

The arrival of Valencia would further boost a forward line which already includes Spain World Cup winner Fernando Llorente and Borja Baston.
