Swansea City are being linked with a move for AIK centre-forward Kevin Filling, with the Swedish-Senegalese teenager reportedly on the Championship club’s radar.

The 17-year-old, who plays as a centre-forward and wears number 29 for AIK, is the subject of transfer speculation over a potential switch from the Allsvenskan to the English second tier, according to data from Transfermarkt. The reported probability of the deal is listed only as “?”, underlining that talks, if any, are at a very early and uncertain stage.

Filling, born on 30 November 2008 in Västerås, is regarded as a promising attacking talent and stands at 1.85m. He is right-footed and operates primarily through the middle in an attacking role. He holds dual nationality with Sweden and Senegal, adding an extra layer of long-term international intrigue to his development.

His current market value is stated at €2.00m, a figure that will attract attention in the context of modern transfer fees for teenage forwards. With no contract start date or expiry publicly listed, there is also external speculation that his situation could develop towards a free agent scenario in future windows if no long-term deal is secured, though there is no confirmation of that at this stage.

Filling is currently registered with AIK and listed with the club rather than any senior national team setup. Recent match-by-match performance data, including specific opponents, dates, scorelines and individual displays, has not been detailed in the latest update, leaving scouts and supporters alike waiting for fuller statistical breakdowns as his senior career progresses.

If Swansea do firm up their interest, a move to the Championship could represent a significant step in Filling’s career, offering a platform in English football that may shape both his reputation and his long-term potential at club and international level.
