Monk dismisses rumours Swansea skipper Williams leaving

Swansea boss Garry Monk insists his skipper Ashley Williams is not for sale, reports BBC Sport. The 31 year old signed a new four-year Swansea deal last summer but television pundit Robbie Savage claimed last weekend that the Wales captain should be playing for a top-six club.

"Ash is massive for us and I think he's been linked every year near enough to moving away," said Monk.

"He's very settled here and loves the club. He stands for a lot of what we are doing and how I want to go forward with the club and the team, so I don't envisage that changing at all."
