Las Palmas attacker Jonathan Viera breaks silence over €25M Swansea bid

Las Palmas attacker Jonathan Viera has cooled talk of a move to Swansea City.

Swansea City see Viera as a replacement for Gylfi Sigurdsson, wanted by Everton, and have offered €25m this week.

"I've always been very clear and I would like to stay here. It's been complicated for a few months because of the rumors that have come out and I'm sad about how everything has been done, but I deserve to be valued as I have always been," said Viera.

"Also, it's sad about how this situation has been handled."

He added: "Very good offers and new ones will arrive this week. The proposals that are going to arrive are very big and I will make a big effort if I stay, but I need the club and the people to want me to stay."
