Swans keen for more Brandy

Swansea City manager Roberto Martinez is keen to take United striker Febian Brandy back to the Liberty Stadium for a second loan spell.

Although the diminutive forward was used primarily as a substitute during his five-month spell in south Wales last season, his application and ability clearly made an impression on the Swans' boss.

Should Sir Alex Ferguson opt to farm the teen striker out for another taster of competitive action away from Old Trafford, Martinez is ready to swoop.

"Febian settled in straight away when he came to us," he told Swansea's official website. "He loved every second of his time here and you could see him improving every day.

"He was slowly fulfilling the Premier League potential he has and now we are waiting for the go-ahead to sign him on a season-long loan. I have spoken to Febian about it and I know he is very keen to come back."
