Swansea defender Flores out of Wembley trip

Swansea City defender Chico Flores will miss their Capital One Cup final against Bradford City.

Flores, who has formed an excellent defensive partnership with Ashley Williams since arriving from Genoa in the summer, was stretchered off after just 34 minutes at the Liberty Stadium in victory over QPR.

"It's difficult at the moment to assess how long he will be out because we need the swelling to go down first," said Swansea's head physio Kate Rees. "But he is very unlikely to make the cup final."
