However, a deal for the 22-year-old Crystal Palace player looks unlikely as he is attracting interest from a number of clubs including Rangers, Celtic and Coventry City.
Swansea, meanwhile, look set to hold on to Vipotnik despite strong suggestions that the Slovenia international would be sold in this window.
There had been interest from Europe in Vipotnik, but Swansea now seem set to hold on to the 23-year-old despite the imminent arrival of Idah.
Vipotnik has just enjoyed his best week since joining the Swans in the summer of 2024, scoring three goals in the club’s past three games.
But Cooper is in line to depart having made only one appearance so far this season.
Sheehan has told the 25-year-old it is his choice whether to stay at Swansea or move in search of regular football, and League One Wigan have emerged as favourites for his signature.
Joel Cotterill could also head out on loan amid interest from Bristol Rovers, while Josh Ginnelly is another player Swansea are willing to offload.
