Swansea midfielder Ki Sung-yueng: Why would I join West Ham?!

Swansea City midfielder Ki Sung-yueng has rejected an offer from West Ham - with a dig.

The Hammers are keen on adding Ki and Swansea team-mate Alfie Mawson to their own Premier League relegation scrap before tonight's 11pm deadline.

But Swansea do not want to sell anyone and South Korean midfielder Ki - who is out of contract in the summer - plans to see out the season at the Liberty Stadium.

"I want to be here and if Swansea want me to stay here, then I can help this team stay in the Premier League," Ki said.

"It is a difficult time but I don't think I am going to leave. I don't need to move. I don't think West Ham are better than us."
