Swansea City rejects Hull's £10m bid for forward Zan Vipotnik

Summary

Swansea City has turned down a bid from Premier League side Hull City for forward Zan Vipotnik, reportedly worth around £10 million. Vipotnik, a 24-year-old Slovenia international, finished as the top scorer in the Championship with 23 goals during the 2025-26 season. Former Swansea forward Lee Trundle argues that Vipotnik is worth at least £20 million, citing his impressive goal tally in a team that created few chances. Trundle and other former players emphasize that Swansea should demand a significantly higher fee based on past player transfers and Vipotnik's contract status, which runs for four more years. Hull's offer has been described as insufficient given Vipotnik's performance and the current market values for top scorers.
