Swansea put a £50 million price tag on Gylfi Sigurdsson
Sky Sports have reported that the Swans will not sell their Icelandic playmaker, Gylfi Sigurdsson for less than £50 million. This might come as a shock for Everton who already had a £32 million bid rejected last week. Ronald Koeman is keen on landing Sigurdsson but it remains to be seen if the Toffees are ready splash such a big amount on an attacker. Leicester City are also rumoured to be interested in.
