​Swansea boss Clement confident Llorente will stay

Swansea City head coach Paul Clement believes striker Fernando Llorente will stay at the club.

Chelsea have a long-standing interest in the 32-year-old, who scored 15 goals to help Swansea avoid Premier League relegation last season.

Llorente, who joined the Swans from Sevilla in 2016, is currently sidelined with a fractured arm.

"He has got a year to go on his deal and we'd like him to stay for this year and longer," said Clement.
