Swansea Chairman Pin Points Laudrup Replacement
Swansea chairman Huw Jenkins is lining up Everton’s assistant Graeme Jones as the man to replace Michael Laudrup as the clubs manager.
The future of Laudrup has been thrown into question after the Dane has overlooked just one victory from his last nine league matches leaving the Swans languishing just two points from the relegation zone.
Jenkins and supporters alike fear that if Laudrup remains in charge, Swansea would be dragged deeper in the relegation scrap with 14 matches remaining.
Therefore according to the Telegraph, Swansea are eyeing up Jones as the ideal man to replace Laudrup.
Jones was assistant to Roberto Martinez whilst in charge at the Liberty and since followed the Spaniard to Goodison Park.
Jenkins looked at the possibility of giving Jones the permanent managers position after Martinez’s departure and after Brendan Rodgers left for Liverpool.
However one conundrum they face is that Laudrup only signed a new deal at in March last year and it would therefore take a hefty compensation figure to release him.
SOS pay him off now it's worth every penny...
