Darnel Situ says he is really excited to have joined Swansea after completing his deadline day move
Situ signed a two year deal at the club after the Swans agreed a £250,000 fee plus add ons to secure a highly rated talent. Having been on loan at Newcastle and previously attracted interest from Manchester United and Chelsea, the capture of Situ could turn out to be one of the most shrewd pieces of business on transfer deadline day.
Speaking via the club’s official website, Situ said “I was told about Swansea’s interest about 10 days ago and I’ve been researching the club ever since on the internet
“I’m really excited about joining Swansea and the Premier League. I watch the Premier League a lot on TV back home and I am a big fan.
“There was interest from the likes of Newcastle and Fulham, but Swansea were the ones who wanted me the most and I’m delighted to be here.
“I have a few friends over here, such as Adel Taarabt at QPR, and a few youngsters at the likes of Man City, Chelsea and Newcastle.
“They have all told me that Swansea is a friendly club who play the game the right way. I have had a quick look around the city and the stadium which is wonderful.
“I have met the manager (Brendan Rodgers) and I am looking forward to working with him and gaining from his experience.
“I am excited to be here. I will work hard and do the best I can every day on the training field to be on the pitch on the weekends.”
