Swansea City have announced the re-signing of striker Wilfried Bony, following the departure of striker Fernando Llorente for a reported £12m.
A club statement read:
"Swansea City are delighted to announce that Wilfried Bony has rejoined the club from Manchester City, subject to international clearance.
Bony has signed a two-year deal, with the option of a third, at the Liberty Stadium after the Swans paid an undisclosed fee for the Ivory Coast international.
Bony, who has opted for squad number two, returns to South Wales just over two-and-a-half years after he left the Swans for City in a deal worth up to £28 million.
He was a huge fans’ favourite during his first spell as a Swan, when he established himself as one of the Premier League’s leading frontmen.
Bony originally signed for the Swans from Vitesse Arnhem, where he had an exceptional goalscoring record, in a club-record deal in the summer of 2013.
He netted 34 goals in 70 appearances – only 56 of which were starts – and became a focal point of the Swans side."
