Former Liverpool centre-back Jamie Carragher believes Wilfried Bony is the type of player Swansea City can build a successful team around.
The 25-year old Ivory Coast striker has made a massive impact in the English Premier League since joining from Dutch side Vitesse Arnhem in July 2013 and during that time, has made a massive fan in Carragher.
Bony has netted 30 goals in 60 appearances in all competitions for the Swans and Carragher suggests he will continue to succeed in Wales if a bigger club does not come in for his services.
"His form this season, coming off the back of his 16-goal campaign last year, has been pretty decent," Carragher told Sky Sports.
"He's on four goals already and when I watched him last week in Swansea's game with Everton at Goodison Park his hold-up play was fantastic.
"I think he has quite a steep buyout clause in his Swansea contract and wages could come into it, too, so perhaps that's why a bigger club hasn't taken a punt.
"If he carries on in a good vein of form, though, he will generate interest because he has power, pace and is a real focal point you can build your team around."
