Swansea City are on the verge of signing Motherwell winger Elijah Just, with talks between the two clubs reaching an advanced stage.

The 26-year-old New Zealand international caught the eye at this summer's FIFA World Cup, appearing in all three of the All Whites' group-stage matches and finishing the tournament as the side's top scorer with three goals.

A record fee for Motherwell

Securing Just's signature will not come cheap — Swansea will need to break Motherwell's existing club record for a transfer fee received in order to get the deal over the line. The Championship side face competition for the player, who has also been linked with a move to Celtic.

Just arrived at Fir Park in 2025 after spending most of his playing career in Denmark. He made 43 appearances for Motherwell, contributing seven goals and earning a nomination for the Scottish Premiership player of the year award.

Reuniting with a fellow All White

Should the transfer be completed, Just would link up with Marko Stamenic at Swansea — another New Zealand international already on the club's books in south Wales.
