Swansea City are reportedly keen on signing Celtic midfielder Stuart Armstrong as a replacement for Gylfi Sigurdsson, who has left for Everton.

Celtic midfielder Stuart Armstrong is reportedly attracting interest from Swansea City.

The Welsh club have funds to spend after the big-money sale of Gylfi Sigurdsson to Everton, and it appears that they have identified a potential replacement for the Icelandic international.

According to The Sun, Swansea are prepared to pay £6m in order to sign Armstrong, who has just 12 months remaining on his existing deal with the Scottish Premiership champions.

A new contract is currently on the table for the 25-year-old, and it has been claimed that the former Dundee United player is being pressed to make a decision on his future.

During his time in Glasgow, Armstrong has scored 25 goals in 120 appearances in all competitions, with his most recent outing coming as a substitute in Celtic's 5-0 win over Astana in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
