Football Insider revealed that Swansea City had shown interest in Kyogo Furuhashi, but the transfer did not happen.

Swansea City head coach Vitor Matos stated that he really likes Birmingham City player Kyogo Furuhashi. Any move for Furuhashi would be a loan. A discussion with Birmingham City is planned for Sunday, but that is dependent on other player movements at Swansea. Swansea will be in direct contact with Sporting Director Craig Gardner. The rumoured fee for Kyogo Furuhashi's original transfer from Stade Rennais was approximately nine million pounds. If Furuhashi leaves on loan or permanently, it will be for a loss. A loan is more preferred and considered easier to explain.

There is some interest in Kyogo Furuhashi from the Swans but it is minimal, and no transfer fee will be paid unless it is a token amount. Furuhashi's salary is above what the Swans pay. A source said that if his numbers, his age and salary are considered, most people will become aware that he is not an option at the finances referred to. A loan would be an option, but there are significant decisions to be made on how much the Swans would pay. Unless Swansea have made significant progress over the last twenty-four hours, he is not a player the club will pursue with maximum effort at present. It appears a loan is the best option.

Although Kyogo Furuhashi has been linked with a move away, with Swansea City said to be keen, a stay at BCFC is considered the most likely outcome due to his wages and his desire to succeed at the club.
