L’Équipe understands that SC Bastia’s Florian Bianchini (23) is set to join EFL Championship side Swansea City.

Bianchini, a former France youth international, came through the ranks at Amiens SC, before also going on to play for Châteauroux. He then joined Corsican side Bastia on a free transfer at the start of last season before going on to make 30 appearances in all competitions, netting five goals and registering six assists in Ligue 2.

Having helped keep Bastia in France’s second flight last season, Bianchini now looks set to depart. Internal sources have informed L’Équipe that an agreement between the French side and Swansea has been reached, although the value of the transfer has not yet been revealed. It is good news for Bastia, who like many French clubs, needed to make sales this summer.

The midfielder is expected to arrive in Wales in the coming hours to undergo a medical before signing a contract to officially become a Swansea player.
