Swansea chase Middlesbrough forward

With all the attention focused on Cardiff over the past few days, we thought we'd have a double round up of Championship news for you today - Swansea are after a striker, Millwall have a midfielder (until January), while Ipswich's summer clearout continues. Oh, and we manage to squeeze one mention of Craig Bellamy in there...

Swansea City chairman Huw Jenkins has revealed his club are hoping to lure Middlesbrough striker Leroy Lita to south Wales. His comments come on the same day that current Swansea forward Gorka Pintado has been ruled out for three months after undergoing a shoulder operation.
Millwall have extended the loan deal of Darren Carter. The Preston North End midfielder will now be at the New Den until January at least.
Jon Walters has finally completed his move away from Portman Road, after Stoke's offer of £2.75 million was accepted earlier today.
Midfielder Stuart O'Keefe has left Southend to join Crystal Palace on a free transfer, but will the 19-year-old be joined by Edgar Davids in the coming days?
With Craig Bellamy heading to Cardiff City, the Nottingham Evening Post believes it could open the door for Nottingham Forest to sign the Bluebirds' top scorer from last season, Peter Whittingham.

Would Cardiff let Whittingham go? Could Lita join Swansea? Let us know below...
