Ethan Galbraith is set to leave Swansea City for Stoke City after the club accepted a bid reported to be in the eight-figure range. The Northern Ireland international midfielder, who joined Swansea from Leyton Orient last summer, is scheduled for a medical on Tuesday. Swansea had intended to offer Galbraith a new long-term contract, but he opted not to sign. With his departure, head coach Vitor Matos faces a challenge given Galbraith's impact last season, where he contributed four goals in 44 appearances. The move highlights a significant shift for both clubs as they navigate the current transfer window.
