Garry Monk’s time as Swans boss looks like it’s coming to an end after he oversaw the 3-0 home defeat to Leicester on Saturday, his side’s fourth loss in five games.

Mirror journalist David Anderson reports that talks have already taken place between the Swansea chairman and Moyes’ people as he looks to save his club from the drop.
