Swansea boss Laudrup welcomes Napoli Euro challenge

Swansea City boss Michael Laudrup is delighted with their Europa League draw against Napoli.

Laudrup, whose team have already negotiated 10 European games in a campaign that began on August 1, insists he doesn't fear the challenge.

He explained: "I said before the draw that my players and our fans deserved a big club and we got one. It is probably the hardest we could have had. But it is a tie for everyone to look forward to, and it will be a great experience for the team, the club, the fans and the city.

"We took more than 1,000 fans to Switzerland last week which says everything about our supporters and we will do all we can for them."
