Cork: Swansea can match Southampton achievements

Jack Cork is convinced by the potential of his new club Swansea City.

Cork left Southampton for the Swans last week.

"I think it got to the stage where it was best for both of us, me and Southampton, if I ended up moving away," Cork said.

"Sometimes a new challenge is what you need. Get out of your comfort zone and hopefully this will give me another little boost to get going.

"I'm joining a similar club to the one I've been at - both have come through the divisions, play attractive football and have done well - and it seemed like a good option for me."

Cork added: "We can definitely get into Europe.

"The club has had a taste of European football before with the League Cup win a couple of years ago and I am sure everyone here would love to do it again.

"I personally would love to do it because I have never had that opportunity before."
