Swansea have enjoyed a great start to the season under Steve Cooper, with the Welsh side currently sitting second in the table after seven games, after plundering a points return of 16 from a possible 21, in what has been a strong run of performances for the club. 

These performances have been largely influenced by the form of one of their key players in Kosovan international Bersant Celina, who has made a great start to the campaign under Cooper, with the Welsh manager deploying him in both the left and central attacking midfield roles of his preferred 4-2-3-1 formation.

Celina has started the campaign brightly, with the former Manchester City man registering two goals in his first seven Championship games, with one coming when playing in a central position and the other from his more regular position on the left hand side of the Swans attack.

From a creative perspective, Celina has also contributed significantly, with the 23 year-old averaging 2.1 key passes per game, 1.6 dribbles per game and also recording a passing success rate of 76.3% so far this season, all of which are strong statistics which put the ex-Ipswich Town player in the upper echelons of Swansea's most creative outlets this term, according to data provided by WhoScored.com.

In addition to statistics, some potentially interested Premier League clubs will surely have taken note of the youngsters improvement in other areas of his game such as his ability to hold onto the ball for long periods, thus getting his team higher up the pitch and his improved work rate when the Swans are out of possession, which has proved to be important this season, given that Cooper likes his side to play with a high press.

Celina's strong versatility also makes him a good option for Premier League clubs come January, as he has shown that he can fill in and perform well in several different positions throughout his career.

With data provided by Transfermarkt.co.uk, showing that the Kosovan has played predominantly as an attacking midfielder for most of his career, whilst also taking on the roles of a support striker, left winger, right winger and on the odd occasion he has operated as a centre forward.

The 23 year-old will have also caught the eye of Premier League scouts with his performances for the Kosovo national team, with the young forward performing brightly against England in the side's recent European qualifier at St Mary's stadium in Southampton, as the Swansea player played the full 90 minutes for his country.

Celina would provide a very strong option for a mid-table/top-half challenging Premier League side, particularly with  Transfermarkt.co.uk valuing the 23 year-old's market price at around the £5 million mark, which is surely likely to increase if he continues his current trajectory.

One thing's for sure, Swansea City will be hoping that they can ward of any potential interest from higher division sides this January, with the player providing one of the key components to any potential promotion charge.
