Florian Thauvin (Marseille) £9.9m 9m Haris Vuckic (FC Twente) Free Vurnon Anita (Leeds) Free Sammy Ameobi (Bolton) Free Yoan Gouffran (Goztepe) Free Daryl Murphy (Nottm Forest) £2m 2m TOM CARROLL has been backed to step perfectly into Gylfi Sigurdsson’s boots at Swansea. Iceland ace Sigurdsson, 27, is on the sidelines at the Liberty Stadium as the Swans continue to demand a £50million fee from Everton for him. He will miss the Premier League opener at Southampto­n, but teammate Leroy Fer said: “Tom is very good and he also has some excellent deliveries from his left foot. “He is a player who can provide good free-kicks and corners. Gylfi is a miss, but we must carry on and Tom is excellent at set-pieces.”
