Swansea City's transfer deadline day took a dramatic late twist, with three deals collapsing at the eleventh hour. A move for Manchester City youngster Jeremy Monga is no longer expected to materialise, while Ronald and Zeidane Inoussa both saw their exits fall through.
Monga move collapses
The 17-year-old winger had looked poised to join on a season-long loan, but he now won't be coming on board. Earlier reports had suggested the move could be confirmed later tonight, but it is now understood the deal will not go through.
Ronald and Inoussa deals fall through
The Swans had agreed a fee with Millwall believed to be in the region of £2m for Ronald, with manager Vitor Matos suggesting the move had fallen through due to a failure to agree personal terms.
"Ronald, as far as I know, didn't reach an agreement, so he's part of the team," he said.
Inoussa, meanwhile, had looked set to join Portsmouth on a season-long loan, but that move has also fallen by the wayside.
"I'm not really clear about what the situation was," Matos added. "But yeah, staying as well. Happy to have him. He's a wonderful kid. I don't think he goes to Portsmouth, but I think he will stay."
Vipotnik's future uncertain
Star striker Zan Vipotnik is still in the building, although Matos has suggested there is still a possibility he could go, with the window still open in Portugal, Saudi Arabia and Turkey among others.
Vipotnik was the subject of initial enquiries from Portuguese giants Benfica earlier in the summer, while rivals Sporting have also been touted as possible admirers.
"There are still some markets that are open," Matos admitted. "So you never know what happens. But at the moment, like I said, he's here and I'm really happy if he stays. We all love him. It's not easy in terms of dealing with all the noise. Of course, but we are here to take care of him."
Pressed on whether there might be a possibility he could still go, he added: "We hope he is here, but that is the hard part of the transfer window is that some markets are still open that are massive opportunities for players."
