Michu extends contract with Swansea

The Spain national has been constantly speculated to join a top club following an amazing first season in the English Premier League, but stressed that he loves life at the Liberty Stadium.

Michu has penned a new contract with Swansea City which will run until the summer of 2016. The 26-year-old was linked with a number of potential clubs in the transfer window, but now has decided to stay at his current side.

The attacking midfielder has been in sensational form since making the move from Spanish side Rayo Vallecano for just £2.2 million in the summer transfer window. He has scored 16 goals in 28 games for the Swans in all competitions.

The star player claimed that he wanted to remain at the club as he is really happy at the Liberty Stadium. He stated that he enjoys playing for his side and is looking forward to qualify for the first final of his playing career.

“It was an easy decision for me. I am living a dream here at Swansea. I’m probably enjoying my football more than ever. It’s easy to play with this team and tonight I have the chance to reach the first final of my career,” he added.

“I’m really happy here in the city with the people, the club and the fans. Everyone has been so nice to me since I arrived. I think the club are happy with me because they have given me a new contract. I am certainly happy with the club,” he mused.

“I’ve read and listened to all the speculation, but it doesn’t interest me, and that’s why I’ve signed a new contract. I’m enjoying myself too much because the team always tries to play football,” he finally concluded.

Michu maintained that Swansea are happy with his progress and that is the reason why they offered him a new deal.
