Last updated : 04 July 2014 By Footy Mad - Editor

Swansea City are reportedly in pole position to sign Marseille winger Dimitri Payet ahead of Newcastle United and Everton this summer.

The Swans have already signed Bafetimbi Gomis on a free-transfer and are looking to add another Frenchman in Dimitri Payet after enquiring about his availability to Marseille.

Marseille will ask for £6.5 million if they are to allow the 27-year-old to depart the club this summer and Swansea are hoping to wrap up a deal soon.
