Having been suspended last weekend, Filip Lissah is set to return to the right-back spot when Swansea go to Queens Park Rangers on Saturday (15:00 BST), but Josh Key remains unavailable because of a hamstring issue.

Matos acknowledged that Ronald's lay-off may open the door for on-loan Manchester City teenager Jeremy Monga to feature in a matchday squad for the first time since joining Swansea last month.

"I think that's a natural question and a natural situation. When one winger is injured, that creates a gap, a space for another player to fill," Matos said.

"Jeremy is one of our players. He's training well. I think he's getting step by step much more used to us and much more used to the environment, and that's good."
