Laudrup denies plans to quit Swansea

Michael Laudrup denies he's planning to walk out on Swansea City.

Both camps have attempted to cool talk that a split is imminent, but Laudrup has taken another opportunity to call for backing in the transfer market and believes his targets are within the club's reach.

"I have always said that my intention was, and is, to stay at the club," Laudrup told the South Wales Evening Post.

"I think all the speculation regarding my future is due to the fact that there hasn't been any good news since we played our last game three weeks ago. We all need some good news.

"I had hoped for some signings at this stage, but I think this is a question to ask to the chairman and the board.

"They have all the names of the possible players for our team. And all the players, except one, are in Swansea's level when we talk about transfer and salary.

"Everyone is looking forward to receiving some news regarding new players. Instead people can read in different papers and media that there are bigger and bigger problems with me, the chairman, the board, my agent or players who will not join Swansea because they are not sure that I will stay."
