Swansea City head coach Francesco Guidolin is reportedly keen to sign Stoke City striker Peter Crouch.

Stoke City striker Peter Crouch has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for Swansea City.

Crouch has fallen down the pecking order at the Britannia Stadium and earlier this summer, it was claimed that Newcastle United were interested in signing the former England international.

However, according to The Sun, Swansea boss Francesco Guidolin has identified the 35-year-old as a potential signing as he looks to strengthen the club's forward line.

Alberto Paloschi has already departed the Liberty Stadium and with Bafetimbi Gomis expected to return to France, the Welsh club are in need of more firepower.

Crouch was limited to just 18 appearances in all competitions last year and he could welcome the chance of regular first-team football at Swansea.
