Swansea City midfielder Leon Britton is confident manager Brendan Rodgers will stay.

Rodgers was linked with the Tottenham job last month when Spurs boss Harry Redknapp was tipped to replace Fabio Capello as England manager.

Britton said: "It's natural when a team does well the manager will be linked with other clubs, and players will be touted to go here, there and everywhere.

"For me the big thing in signing the new contract was the manager being part of the club, as we have seen what he has done in just under two seasons.

"He has improved us as a team and as individuals and this is the place to be if you want to improve as a player.

"He has just signed a new contract so I don't need to ask him his plans for the future, he signed a new contract and that shows he is committed to the club, he has been brilliant and he will want to keep improving the team."
