Following criticism from some fans over Swansea’s work in the January transfer window, chairman Andy Coleman told BBC Sport in February that “there were vital pieces missing from the scouting and the data side” of the club’s transfer set-up last summer.
“Now I feel we are getting them in place, each window we progress, we will be able to utilise those tools and take advantage earlier,” he added at the time.
“We’ve already started working on the summer, be it pre-contracts and targets. you name it, we are now in a better position to move earlier which I think is ultimately what we all want to focus on.”
Allen, Ronald and Ginnelly all did bike work on the side of the pitch during Swansea’s open training session, as did Kuharevich, Naughton and young winger Aimar Govea.
Teenager Sam Parker, who like Govea made his senior debut last season, was not involved in the session, and neither was former MK Dons player Fisher.
