Swansea boss Laudrup will cast net wide for new signings

Swansea City boss Michael Laudrup insists he doesn't care where his new signings will come from.

Laudrup expects to buy this summer after taking charge last week.

"Of course I want players that I have knowledge of, but if they are Danes, Dutch or Spanish, it is not the most important," he said.

"I do not buy any players just because they are Danes. It should be someone who fits in, and then they must be good quality at a reasonable cost.

"Of course money is important - to say it is not in football would be a lie.

"But to find a good player with potential for a small amount of moment and then to develop him in the group is a great pleasure for a manager and for a club."
