The most recent information from Swansea.com Stadium
Josh Key, a full-back, is said to have had a second compensation bid rejected by Exeter City, according to Swansea City.
WalesOnline has learned that SA1 has been considering the 24-year-old since January, but they are aware that they will probably face fierce competition to recruit him.
This summer, Plymouth Argyle and West Bromwich Albion have also been named as potential suitors.
According to Football Insider, the Swans have now been rejected twice in their attempt to sign the player, whose deal expires this summer.
Unless the player chooses to move to Scotland or Europe, Exeter is entitled to compensation should a club wish to sign him. This is because of his age.
After putting in two petitions for compensation, the Swans are reportedly prepared to appear before a tribunal should the necessity arise.
Swansea City, according to Paul Watson, is the ideal next step for his career and possesses all the qualities needed to be a Premier League team.
After serving as Luton Town’s sporting director for five years, Watson was ultimately announced as Swansea’s new sporting director on Monday afternoon.

He undoubtedly contributed to the Hatters’ incredible ascent to the top division, but he says he’s excited to begin a new chapter at the Swansea.com Stadium.
“It’s taken a bit of time, but I am excited to get down to work with the project here,” he stated.
“After meeting with the ownership group and learning about their future plans, I decided that leaving Luton was the right decision for my career, even though I thoroughly loved my five years there with a great team and foundation.
In the upcoming years, I want to be able to make a difference and move the club in the right direction.
Both the staff and the facilities here are of Premier League caliber. You can tell there is a lot of potential here and that we will not perform too badly if we can mold a team that matches the caliber of facilities. I have had a warm welcome and have had a whistlestop tour.
“Over the past five years, I have gained a great deal of knowledge, and I hope to bring that to this position and assist us in developing a clear plan for how we want to play, recruit, and develop our own players.”
“Having an aligned approach is crucial as it offers the best foundation for success both on and off the field.”
It has been confirmed that Swansea City is one of the two wildcard entries for the Nathaniel MG Cup in the upcoming season.

Swansea will be participating in the event for the first time, and the first round is scheduled for the weekend of July 21.
Wasiri Williams, a defender for Swansea City, has officially joined Partick Thistle on a free transfer.
The 23-year-old has signed a two-year contract at Firhill and is expected to depart the Swans when his contract ends at the end of the month.
“I’m delighted to add Wasiri to the squad and to have him in at Firhill in time for pre-season training starting is even better,” stated Kris Doolan, manager of Partick Thistle.
“This marks the beginning of the summer business that we intend to undertake, and we are aware that there will be critical sectors in which we must hire this summer.
“We see Wasiri playing football in Maryhill as a center-back, where he is a strong, physically built defender.”
Chris Davies has been officially named Tottenham Hotspur’s senior assistant coach.
Prior to his desire to work with incoming Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou, Davies was considered a strong candidate to replace Russell Martin as Swansea City manager. As a result, the Swans had to look elsewhere for a manager.
Since then, Michael Duff has assumed leadership and is in charge of the team’s preseason training camp in Spain.
“Chris, who has previously worked on the coaching staff at Swansea City, Liverpool, Celtic, and Leicester City, joins as Senior Assistant Coach,” Tottenham announced in a statement confirming the Davies’ move to north London.
“Our new team of coaching staff will begin work alongside Ange on 1 July.
Bob Bradley, the former manager of Swansea City, was fired from his position as head coach and sports director of Toronto FC, a Major League Soccer team.
Bradley, who led the Swans for just 85 days before being fired in 2016, departs with just three victories from his final 20 games in command of the Canadian team.
Bob has been a model employee for Toronto FC, and we appreciate all of his hard work and dedication during his tenure. The president of Toronto FC, Bill Manning, released a statement saying, “We are all disappointed that we were not able to achieve the results we expected.”
