Swansea City striker set for loan exit as Sheffield Wednesday and Oxford United emerge as frontrunners

Kyle Joseph is set to leave Swansea City on loan this month, WalesOnline understands.

The striker has featured in pre-season but has predominantly turned out for the club's under-21s of late. He was not included in the matchday squad for the Championship opener at Rotherham United last weekend.

And he is now close to sealing a loan move away from south Wales, with Sheffield Wednesday and Oxford United both battling it out for the 20-year-old's signature.

Joseph joined the Swans last summer from Wigan Athletic and made two Carabao Cup appearances under Russell Martin before joining Cheltenham Town on a season-long loan deal last term.

However, his time with the Robins was cut short and he returned to south Wales midway through the 2021/22 campaign. Joseph - who still has three years left to run on his contract with Swansea - made 10 substitute appearances for the Swans in the second half of last term.

The transfer window closes at 11pm on Thursday, September 1.
