Agent expects Wigan, Celtic target Williams to stay at Swansea

The agent of Swansea City defender Ashley Williams expects him to stay beyond the January market.

Williams has been linked with Celtic, Wigan and Blackburn Rovers.

"Ashley still has a lengthy contract at Swansea and in terms of this January window I can't see anything changing with him," Jamie Moralee told the South Wales Evening Post.

"I see him 100% still being a Swansea player at the start of February. Ashley has been linked with a lot of clubs, but I think his attitude, along with that of the Swansea chairman and the Swansea manager, will be 'let's get our heads down and try to get promoted'.

"Then, if we fail as a team, maybe we will sit down and talk about the possibility of moving on to pastures new. If Swansea put Ashley up for sale tomorrow, he would be gone by Friday.

"But they don't want to sell him and Ashley doesn't want to go. He loves Swansea and appreciates the chance they have given him in the Championship. He isn't putting in transfer requests and he wants to get promoted with them."
