Swansea are plotting a loan move for Chelsea striker Patrick Bamford after his shock departure from Crystal Palace, according to reports.
Several Premier League clubs are reportedly willing to offer Bamford another chance in the Premier League following his frustrating spell in south London with Palace.
Bamford was widely expected to make a solid impact for the Eagles after his stunning season last year with Middlesbrough, but the 22-year-old failed to earn regular match-time under Alan Pardew.

The former England U21 star is unlikely to stay at his parent club, Chelsea, but his next destination is currently unknown.
The Daily Mail say league strugglers Swansea are keen to secure Bamford’s services for the rest of the season and are considering a loan move, while they also contemplate offloading Bafetimbi Gomis.
Swansea came up against Bamford on Monday in the 0-0 draw at Selhurst Park, before the forward announced that he had played his last game for the South Londoners.
