Ki Sung-Yeung

AFP - Swansea manager Michael Laudrup is confident of completing the club-record signing of South Korea midfielder Ki Sung-Yeung, 23, from Celtic on Friday.

Laudrup's club have agreed a fee of around 6 million pounds with the Scottish champions for Ki, who helped his country win a bronze medal at the London Olympics.

Former Barcelona and Real Madrid star Laudrup, whose side won 5-0 at QPR on the opening weekend of the Premier League season, believes Ki is a vital addition to Swansea's squad after the loss of Wales international Joe Allen to Liverpool.

'He's a very dynamic player and, like the players we have signed and those we will sign, he can fit into our style," said Laudrup.
