Graham: Striker has agreed terms on a four-year deal with Swansea

Swansea have agreed personal terms with Danny Graham over his proposed £3.5 million transfer from Watford.

The striker was given permission to speak to the Premier League new boys after the Hornets confirmed they had accepted the Swans' increased offer on Monday.

These talks have now reached fruition, with Swansea chairman Huw Jenkins confirming their success following discussions with Graham and his agent.

The 25-year-old will sign a four-year contract with an additional 15 per cent sell-on clause to Watford on any profit above the £3.5 million fee.

Jenkins told the club's official website: "We have agreed all personal terms with Danny.

"He is a player we have admired for quite some time and as a football club we are delighted to get our man."
