Swansea City keen to swoop for Brentford player in late transfer window move
Swansea City are interested in signing Brentford midfielder Myles Peart-Harris on a season-long loan, according to reports.
The BBC have reported that head coach Luke Williams is keen to bring the youngster to the Swansea.com Stadium for the rest of the 2024/25 season as he looks to add the finishing touches to his squad before the transfer window closes.
Peart-Harris joined Brentford from their west London rivals Chelsea in 2021, and he has spent time on loan in League One with Forest Green Rovers and Portsmouth in recent seasons, helping the latter win promotion to the Championship earlier in 2024.
Swansea City interested in Brentford playmaker Myles Peart-Harris
Following Jamie Paterson’s departure, Swansea look short of options in attacking midfield, and Peart-Harris would fill that void.
Ollie Cooper has made the attacking midfield starting berth his own in recent weeks and has impressed, earning a recall to the Wales national team squad under Craig Bellamy, but squad depth is needed, and Peart-Harris would offer competition to Cooper and depth to Luke Williams’ side.
Swansea were previously linked with a move for Swedish playmaker Noel Milleskog, but with just days left of the transfer window, no move has materialised, and the Swans have been forced to look at other options.
The Swans have only used one of their loan spots after signing Nelson Abbey from Olympiacos on a temporary basis last week, whilst five loanees can be named in a matchday league squad. The club are clearly keen to sign players on a permanent basis who could become assets for the club, but needs must at this stage of the window for Swansea.
