Swansea City duo Martin Olsson and Kristoffer Nordfedlt are heading to the World Cup this summer.

Left-back Olsson and goalkeeper Nordfeldt have both been included in the Swedes’ 23-man squad for the tournament in Russia, which begins on June 14.

Sweden are in Group F alongside Germany, Mexico and South Korea, who are captained by departing Swans midfielder Ki Sung-Yueng.

Swans keeper Lukasz Fabianski, meantime, has been named in Poland’s 35-man preliminary squad for the World Cup.

Renato Sanches, who has just completed a season-long loan at the Liberty Stadium, has been omitted by Portugal.
