SWANSEA and BOLTON are battling to sign Raheem Sterling on loan for the rest of the season.
Sterling, 17, joined Liverpool from QPR two years ago in a deal worth up to £5million.
He is having to remain patient at Anfield, though, as he is yet to make an appearance under Kenny Dalglish.
Liverpool will listen to the options as a switch could certainly benefit Sterling if he gets a regular taste of the Premier League.
Swans boss Brendan Rodgers is also looking at Brighton’s 22-year-old midfielder Liam Bridcutt – one of his old Chelsea boys – and watched him in FA Cup action against Wrexham last week.
