Swansea City hope Liam Cullen will be fit for Wednesday’s trip to Sheffield United after the Wales forward missed Sunday’s 1-1 draw with Bristol City through illness.

Cullen, 25, is the Swans’ leading scorer this season with three goals in all competitions.

“He was ill. He missed a couple of days. but then trained for two but unfortunately yesterday evening he felt very poorly again so was unable to be in the squad today (Sunday),” said Swansea head coach Luke Williams.

“He’s got a really good chance [of facing Sheffield United] but we have to be careful because he did lose some weight. That’s a concern because he’s not fully fighting fit, so we’ll have to see how he is over the next few days.

“It’s a shame, that, because he’s been in really good form.”
