Both Swansea City and Cardiff City will likely be shopping in a similar market in the summer transfer window.
While Cardiff are placed under a partial EFL transfer embargo which prohibits them for paying any fees for players, Swansea also like to utilise the free agent market where possible in order to keep outgoing costs at a minimum.
At the end of each season, recruitment teams up and down the country pore over all the clubs' retained lists, hoping to stop a gem who has perhaps fallen through the cracks.
Well, according to Transfermarkt, there are 148 free agents who will be looking for work this summer, as things stand.
So, will any take the fancy of Swansea or Cardiff? Have a peruse and see if you would take any next season – and there are a number of familiar names for fans of both clubs...
