Brendan Rodgers given Swansea City transfer embargo

Brendan Rodgers is reportedly banned from signing players from Swansea for 12 months ahead of his imminent move to Liverpool.

Brendan Rodgers has reportedly been told that he can not sign any of his former Swansea City players for 12 months.

The 39-year-old is expected to be unveiled as the new Liverpool manager this morning after the Reds agreed a compensation package with the Welsh side yesterday.

However, the package is thought to include a clause that forbids Rodgers from signing any Swansea player for a year.

The clause would scupper any plans that Rodgers had to raid his former club, with speculation linking him to moves for Ashley Williams and Scott Sinclair, among others.

The 39-year-old has been backed to make a big impact at Anfield by Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho after the two men worked together at Chelsea.
