Routledge: Swansea switch

The Premier League new boys completed a move for Leroy Lita on Wednesday and Routledge has followed suit for an undisclosed fee, reported to be around £1.5million, after completing his medical.

The 26-year-old former England Under-21 international has put pen to paper on a three-year contract and will compete with Scott Sinclair and Nathan Dyer for a wing spot at the Liberty Stadium.

Routledge told the club website: "I'm looking forward to the challenge.

"It's taken a couple of days to get everything agreed, but I'm excited about getting started."
