Swansea boss Michael Laudrup has said Osaze Odemwingie would fit the bill as the club shop for a striker before the transfer deadline, MTNFootball.com reports.
Laudrup watched his team fire a blank at Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday as Roberto Soldado’s penalty condemned Swansea to another defeat after last week’s 1-4 loss to Manchester United.
According to South Wales Evening Post, Landrup said he believes the club would land Osaze, who is a summer transfer target for Swansea City and two other EPL sides, Stoke City and Cardiff City.
Swansea manager has hinted that West Bromwich Albion outcast Odemwingie is a strong option as he bids to add one last player to his new-look squad.
“We want to add one more who can give us that in a certain part of the game or in certain games,” Laudrup said.
“And he (Odemwingie) is a player with pace who knows the league.”
The Danish legend is keen on the 32-year-old Nigeria international, who is surplus to requirements at ‘The Baggies.’
There are now suggestions that Swansea has tabled an offer of close to £2 million for Odemwingie.
