Swansea City chairman, Huw Jenkins, has revealed that Michu will not be put for sale during the January window, insisting that he plans on strengthening the squad, not to weaken it.
The Spanish International has proved to be one of the signings of the summer, notching up 10 goals in his 15 league matches so far. The South http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wales-c3041 outfit claimed his signature from Raya Vallecano for a meagre 2 million pounds transfer fee.
On Saturday last week, he fired a brace at the Emirates Stadium to stun http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429, allowing his side to leapfrog over the London-based team to seventh spot in the table.
However, the Swans have lately developed a reputation of creating top class players and eventually losing them to bigger clubs.
During the summer window, the club lost the services of Gylfi Sigurdsson, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 respectively, forcing many into believing that same might happen to Michu as well.
Nonetheless, the Swansea supremo revealed that his club have no plans of making a profitable deal from the talismanic midfielder in January.
Instead, the chairman said that the club were looking forward to hand extra transfer funds to the manager, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Michael-c25261 Laudrup, in order to further strengthen their squad.
“We'll be looking to strengthen in January, not to weaken our squad. We'll make every attempt to make sure that happens,” he told the reporters in an interview.
“We felt we had him at good vale and with his goal scoring it's proved to be a good decision. We're very pleased with that one.”
“Michael's after one or two players in all areas - a forward, midfield player and a defender… While it's great signing players with promise, everybody expects results week in week out.”
Michu has played a pivotal role in helping the Swans climb to the top half of the table. He is currently the highest goalscorer in the league with 10 scalps alongside Luis Suarez, Van Persie and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Demba-Ba-c10812.
Laudrup’s unit are unbeaten in their last matches in all competitions and will lock horns with an in-form Norwich City at the Liberty Stadium on Saturday.
