SWANSEA City are interested in signing Swindon Town right-back Kieron Freeman on a short-term deal, according to multiple reports.

The 28-year-old only signed a short-term contract at the County Ground on January 7 but could already be on his way out of SN1 if the Swans make a concrete offer before the 11pm deadline.

BBC Sport Wales first mentioned Steve Cooper's men were interested in signing Freeman late on Monday before Wales Online reporter, Ian Mitchelmore sent out a post on social media that read: "Understand Swansea could sign Kieron Freeman late on deadline day. Short-term deal until the end of the season on the cards."

Freeman has played just twice since arriving due to requiring time to build up his fitness following a spell of over six months without a club.

The one-cap Wales international was released by Sheffield United last summer and was eagerly looking for a route back into football when John Sheridan called to offer a deal until the end of the current season.

Freeman was Town's third January arrival and could be the second Swindon player to leave on deadline day, following Matt Smith's departure to Charlton Athletic via parent club, Arsenal.
