Premier League holders Manchester City reached an agreement with Swansea to sign Ivorian striker Wilfried Bony during the winter transfer window.
Cccording to Sky Sports, Manchester City agreed a fee of more than £25m to lure Bony.
"The situation is that I’d prepared for this period without Wilfried as he was going away anyway," Swansea manager Garry Monk told Sky Sports after Saturday's draw with West Ham.
"Obviously I’m focused on what we’re doing and hopefully the Bony situation will get sorted either way sooner rather than later which is best for both parties."
The 26-year-old produced a string of superb displays with Swansea, scoring nine goals in 20 matches.
Bony is now on international duty with Ivory Coast, who are preparing for the Africa Cup of Nations that will start on 17 th January in Equatorial Guinea.
