Swansea City striker Eder has joined Ligue 1 side Lille on loan until the end of the season.

The 28-year-old joined the Swans on a three-year deal in July, but has struggled to nail down a regular starting spot in the team.

The Portugal international failed to score in 15 appearances for Swansea this season and has now been allowed to spend the rest of the campaign in Ligue 1.

Eder became surplus to requirements at the Liberty Stadium after new manager Francesco Guidolin brought Alberto Paloschi to the club in an £8m deal on Friday.

Eder joins a Lille side who have failed to win in their last five league games and sit just six points clear of the relegation zone.
