Swansea City winger Zeidane Inoussa faces an uncertain future after being left off the club's 25-man English Football League squad list. Head coach Vitor Matos confirmed the 24-year-old remains a potential candidate for a move while international transfer windows in several countries remain open. Although a proposed loan deal to Portsmouth collapsed on deadline day, Matos stated that the club is prepared to support Inoussa if he seeks regular playing time elsewhere. Inoussa struggled for fitness last season, missing significant time due to a back injury after his arrival from BK Hacken in 2025. Swansea opted to leave one spot open in their submitted 25-man roster, providing flexibility to adjust the squad as the market settles. The player is under contract with the Championship side until 2030.
