Swansea’s promotion to the Premier League via their 4-2 Wembley victory over Reading on Monday will see the Blues’ coffers swelled by more than £100,000 via a clause in Tamás Priskin’s loan deal.
The Hungarian international joined the Swans on loan until the end of the season in March and despite the 24-year-old picking up a knee injury which ruled him out of the play-offs, the Welsh club’s elevation to the top flight for the first time since 1983 has triggered a £160,000 payment to Town.
After Swansea had beaten the Blues towards the end of the season, Swans boss Brendan Rodgers said he had been pleased with Priskin’s performances and didn't rule out making his move a permanent one, however, their promotion probably makes this less likely.
Meanwhile, Town continue to be linked with a £1 million move for Cardiff City striker Michael Chopra as part of a summer cost-cutting exercise in the wake of the Bluebirds' failure to reach the Premier League.
