Swansea City 'lead Stoke City, Aston Villa in race for Stephane Bahoken'

Strasbourg striker Stephane Bahoken is reportedly wanted by a trio of clubs, with Swansea City the current favourites to land the Cameroon international.

Swansea City are the frontrunners to sign Cameroonian striker Stephane Bahoken from Ligue 1 side Strasbourg, according to a report.

The 25-year-old, who has previously enjoyed a stint on loan with St Mirren, is also said to be a target for Stoke City and Aston Villa.

Bahoken spent a decade with Nice before moving to Strasbourg on a permanent deal in 2014, and he has impressed this term with six goals in 14 starts for the French top-flight strugglers.

Villa had hoped to bring in the recently-capped Cameroon international at the start of the year but, after failing to reach an agreement, they will make a fresh approach in the summer.

France Football also reports that Stoke have showed an interest, although it is Swansea who are out in front to land the French-born attacker.

Bahoken has 37 Ligue 1 appearances under his belt, having also featured for Nice in the competition prior to his exit four years ago.
