Borja poised for Swansea bow

09 September 2016 08:53

Swansea hope record signing Borja Baston will feature for the first time at home to Chelsea on Sunday.

The striker has struggled with a thigh injury since his £15.5million move from Atletico Madrid but he could make the bench alongside new central defender Alfie Mawson, who joined from Barnsley in a £5million deal just before the transfer deadline.

Wales full-back Neil Taylor is included in a Premier League squad for the first time this season following his extended post-Euro 2016 break and Jefferson Montero is available despite his late return from international duty with Ecuador.

Provisional squad: Fabianski, Naughton, Amat, Fernandez, Kingsley, Britton, Cork, Fer, Routledge, Barrow, Sigurdsson, Llorente, Nordfeldt, Rangel, Taylor, Mawson, Van der Hoorn, Ki, Dyer, Montero, Fulton, McBurnie, Borja.
