Naughton: Ex-Spurs pals convinced me about Swansea

Kyle Naughton is delighted with his move to Swansea City.

The fullback spoke with former Swans Michel Vorm and Ben Davies about the move ahead of leaving Tottenham.

"They told me that Swansea is a great footballing club and a place where it's easy to get on with everyone," Naughton told swanseacity.net.

"They only had good things to say, other than the fact that it can be quite cold and wet in this part of the world. But that's as bad as it got!

"I think this is one of the best places you can come to settle down and push on. I've had quite a few loan moves, so trying to hold down a regular place is one of the reasons why I came here.

"When you look at Swansea you see how others have thrived at the club. Wayne (Routledge) had been to quite a few clubs like myself but has been able to really push on with his career here.

"The same with Nathan (Dyer). He had gone on a few loans and came to us (at Sheffield United) and wasn't playing at first, but as soon as he did you could see he was some player."
