Swansea need to fork out £10m for Liverpool midfielder

Swansea are interested in re-signing Liverpool midfielder Joe Allen in the summer but they have been told they will need to shell out £10m, according to The Daily Mail.

Allen, 26, only has one season left on his contract at Liverpool and is widely expected to leave in the summer despite an improvement in his performances in the last few months.

The Wales international only left Swansea to join Liverpool in 2012 but Francesco Guidolin’s side are looking to bring the central midfielder back to the Liberty City stadium in the summer.

Allen has only started six games in the Premier League this season, with 10 further appearances coming from the bench.  He has played a direct hand in two league goals this season (one goal, one assist).
