Swansea plan major offer for Kuban striker Lacina Traore

Swansea City boss Brendan Rodgers is eyeing Lacina Traore.

Traore, who currently plays for Russian Premier League side Kuban, is a £6 million target for Swansea.

The Mirror says he is seen as just the man for the Swans as they prepare for their second season in the Premier League.

Traore joined Kuban only 15 months ago from Romanian side CFR Cluj, but he is keen to move to a club in western Europe.

The 21-year-old has netted 15 times in 32 appearances for his current club.
