Swansea City defender Garry Monk admits he's considering a move away.

With the January transfer window now open, the futures of several players in Michael Laudrup's squad are up in the air, including that of club captain Monk.

"Swansea are my club, I've been here nine years," said Monk to the South Wales Echo.

"I do not want to go elsewhere so I am not really thinking about that right now, but if there are options I will wait to see what the manager's thoughts are.

"I am in the squad and when I have played I think I have done well, but until I have spoken to the manager I can't say much.

"A lot depends on who the club bring in during the window and what the manager thinks.

"Like every player on the bench you feel a bit wasted and that you could be doing a job for the team."
