Alfie Mawson has predicted a bright future for Bayern Munich loan signing Renato Sanches at Swansea.
Sanches looks set to start in Swansea's Carabao Cup third round clash against Reading at the Madejski Stadium on Tuesday.
And for the 20-year-old Portugal international it would provide another opportunity to work on match sharpness following his arrival in south Wales.
"He is a quality player, and in training he is so encouraging," Swans defender Mawson said.
"The gaffer said last week he is going to take time to adapt, and he hasn't played a lot of football lately, so he needs to get that fitness back and when he does he will be a star player and it will be a joy to play with him.
