After making no secret of his desire to see Billy Bodin back at Plainmoor, Torquay United manager Martin Ling has seen his wish granted by Swindon Town as the two parties have agreed a deal for the youngster.
The Gulls have had a transfer bid accepted by the Robins, who are managed by Paolo Di Canio, which will see the Wales Under-21 starlet join Torquay on a two-year deal once he has passed a medical.
Bodin, whose father, Paul, was a team-mate of Ling and his assistant, Shaun Taylor, during his playing days with the Wiltshire club, scored five times for the Gulls last season in 18 appearances.
This included the opening goal in Torquay's Devon derby double clinching win over Plymouth on January 2nd 2012.
