Swansea City headlines as Llorente reveals 'complicated' Swans spell and Martin's men 'way off' promotion next term

Your Swansea City headlines for Wednesday, April 6.

Fernando Llorente admits he was "happy" during what was a "complicated" season at Swansea City.

The Spaniard netted 15 goals to help keep the Swans in the Premier League during the 2016/17 campaign. However, the Swans were in disarray for much of the season having fired both Francesco Guidolin and Bob Bradley.

And Llorente has opened up on the best moments of his sole season in south Wales. "It was a change from a team with aspirations [Sevilla] to one that was struggling to survive in the Premier League," he told Four Four Two.

"It was a complicated year, with three coaches - Francesco Guidolin signed me, but after the seventh league game he was sacked. Bob Bradley didn't connect with the dressing room, then Paul Clement saved us when it seemed impossible.

"It felt like we had no chance, but something magical happened. We won 3-2 at Anfield and I scored two. Then we won four of the last five games, drew at Old Trafford, and stayed in the Premier League.

"I was a bit lucky, every ball I touched was a goal. I also remember a game against Crystal Palace when I came on, we went into stoppage-time 4-3 down, then I scored two. The stadium exploded. I was happy at Swansea."

The striker left the Swans for Tottenham in the summer of 2017, although he revealed he was close to joining Spurs' London rivals Chelsea. "I'd been talking to Antonio Conte, who wanted me at Chelsea," he added.

"I wanted to go there because I knew I'd adapt quickly to him. Swansea wanted at least £12m, and Roman Abramovich wouldn't go for that. Tottenham did - on the last day of the window
