Swansea in Benfica talks over Oliveira loan

Swansea City are interested in Benfica striker Nelson Oliveira.

Oliveira, 23, spent last season with Rennes on-loan and has struggled for minutes this term with Benfica.

O Jogo says Swansea have expressed interest in Oliveira and hope to tempt him to the Premier League next month.

The Portugal international has spent the past two years abroad, last year with Rennes and before that with Deportivo La Coruna.

Swansea aim to take Oliveira on-loan for the second-half of the season.
