Football | Michael Obafemi joins Swansea on a three-year deal

Swansea have signed Michael Obafemi from Southampton for an undisclosed fee.

The Republic of Ireland international has joined the Championship club on a three-year deal.

Obafemi, 21, was previously set to join the Swans on loan in January before the move was scuppered by injury.

The Irish striker joins Russell Martin's Swansea side after scoring five goals in 39 games for Southampton.

Obafemi won his first senior international cap for the Boys in Green against Denmark in 2018.

Liverpool defender Rhy Williams, 20, has also joined Swansea on loan from the Reds.

Swansea are currently 19th in the Championship table, having collected just four points from their opening five matches.
