Swansea City's Alan Sheehan has confirmed the club would consider a January loan for striker Bobby Wales, whose path to the first team is blocked by the big-money signing of Adam Idah from Celtic and the form of Zan Vipotnik. Sheehan explained that if an opportunity for regular football arises for Wales, the club would need to discuss it with the player closer to the time. Record Sport reported that League One sides Lincoln City and Barnsley have a long-standing interest in the player, and that Aberdeen and Hibs had previously expressed interest before the deadline. Wales joined the English Championship club from Kilmarnock in the summer but has had very limited senior playing time.
