"Gomis (moving) to Galatasaray is possible, we have been talking", Jenkins confirmed. Hopefully it will be in the Premier League, " Abraham said.

On their transfer dealings, Jenkins said: "Keeping your top players is always a hard one".

The likes of Newcastle and Brighton were both keen on bolstering their attack with the addition of Abraham next season, having seen what he was all about when the two sides came up against Bristol City in the Championship last season.

At Swansea, Tammy will be under the care of Paul Clement, who has worked at Chelsea as a youth coach and also as assistant manager to Carlo Ancelotti at Chelsea, PSG, Real Madrid, and Bayern Munich.

"Paul knows him from Chelsea". His Premier League career was cut short by the arrival of Llorente and Borja Baston last season.

The larger squad should keep to a minimum the number of players having to play twice in a week. I think he's done pretty well so far on tour with not many opportunities.

"We've not had any firm bids and if we ever get any firm bids then we will deal with them in the proper way", Jenkins said.

"We aren't putting figures on our players". The main positions we are looking for [with the way that we play] is a central midfielder and a second striker.

Chelsea are keen to tie the striker down to a bumper new contract worth £45,000-a-week when he returns from worldwide duty with the England Under-21s.

The 27-year-old was one of the few players who shone for Swansea during a troubled campaign in which the club narrowly escaped relegation after winning four of their last five games.
