Swansea chairman Jenkins: Laudrup our most important signing

Swansea City chairman Huw Jenkins is delighted to have secured manager Michael Laudrup for next season.

Laudrup signed a one-year contract extension in March to tie him to Swansea until June 2015.

"I think it's important what we've done with Michael," said Jenkins. "We've touched on players staying here and it's the same with Michael.

"He wants to stay here so it wasn't a difficult discussion to renew his contract.

"He wants to stay here and test himself with new challenges in the Europa League and the Premier League."
