The 10 Swansea City signings which made absolutely no sense at all and where they are now

Like all football clubs, Swansea City have had their fair share of transfer hits and misses over the years.

For every success, there have been flops. Astute signings and expensive blunders have both been made. But here, we list 10 of the captures that quite simply turned out horrendously while detailing where they are now in their careers.

His time at the club was hit by controversy, with historic tweets resurfacing which prompted an apology from the American. He's now with Dallas FC.
