Swansea City director Jason Levien says improving the quality of the squad is on the agenda.

Levien revealed that the consortium will purchase "about 68 per cent of the club", and he is relishing life in the Premier League.

"Steve and I both have the benefit of looking at the lessons learnt from other foreign owners - what's worked and what hasn't worked - so we can avoid some of those pitfalls," he said.

"We think the experience that we both have in team ownership, coming into a community that cares deeply about its club and navigating that and trying to lead it towards success, is something we have done in basketball and football in the US.

"This is my fifth season as the manager/general owner of DC United, and I've grown and learnt a lot from that experience.

"I think we take all of the lessons and bring them here. Our love of sport and competition are things that drive us.

"I think the Premier League is exploding in terms of its global presence. For us, our focus is on having success here. If we have success on the pitch and do things the right way, I think there is going to be an organic growth.

"We want to think very strategically about the business side of the club, and how we grow that, and that is going to lead to opportunities to enhance the football side of the club.

"We certainly feel like we have the resources. The increased revenue opportunities will help the club. We want to make sure we have the resources to be successful. We also want to make sure we are doing it in a financially sensible way for the long term.

"We don't want to put the club in jeopardy. We are not going to make decisions that are not helpful to the health of the club, long term.

"If I look at the lessons learnt from other takeovers, other investors, they've maybe promised the world and made massive investments in the beginning, and there is no sustainability in that formula."
