Former Swansea City boss Michael Laudrup has rubbished claims he was sacked because of concerns he and his agent stood to profit from player transfers.

Politiken reports it has seen documents suggesting Laudrup's agent, Bayram Tutumlu, could have made more than £3m during the Dane's reign.

But Laudrup insists his departure had nothing to do with any irregular payments.

"I have read that Swansea stated that they have not found anything that indicates that I have done something wrong or illegal regarding the player transfers in my period as a manager in the club," he said. "I knew that but it is a relief that the club confirms it."
