• 19-year-old wants to get Swansea ‘back where they belong’
• Fulham convert Ivan Cavaleiro’s loan from Wolves into full dealThe Liverpool striker Rhian Brewster has joined Swansea on loan for the remainder of the season. The 19-year-old is highly regarded at Anfield but has found first-team opportunities hard to come by as Liverpool’s established attackers continue to shine.
Brewster, who came through the youth ranks at Chelsea before moving north, made his first Liverpool appearance in the Carabao Cup third-round win at MK Dons earlier this season and then scored a penalty in the shootout victory against Arsenal in the following round. He most recently came on 11 minutes from the end of Sunday’s FA Cup win against Everton.

- Swansea fans living in Cardiff have to first go to Swansea
A number of Swansea City supporters are facing the prospect of having to make a bizarre and, for them, frustrating 200-mile round trip from Cardiff to Swansea in order to attend Sunday’s south Wales derby.
As is tradition, police have deemed the Championship encounter a high-risk fixture and, as such, enfored travel restrictions on away supporters.
