Swansea City have recalled Wales midfielder Ollie Cooper from his loan spell at Wigan Athletic.
Cooper joined the League One club on 1 September on a deal which had been due to run until the end of the season.
But the Championship side have opted to bring the 26-year-old back to Wales.
Cooper was allowed to leave having struggled for game-time under former boss Alan Sheehan.
He will now get the chance to impress Vitor Matos, whose squad has been hit by injuries to Adam Idah, Liam Cullen, Josh Key and Ronald.
Swansea academy product Cooper made 13 appearances for Wigan - including only four league starts - and scored one goal.
He has played 117 senior games for the Swans and scored nine goals, and could be involved when Matos' side go to Millwall on Sunday (15:00 GMT).
