|
Why not visit our sponsors lounge Tom Williams time at Swansea City was effectively up in March when he was told that a "massive club" wanted to sign him. The same club had come in for him in the transfer window according to Williams but he wasn’t made aware of that interest until March. Williams claims that he told the club then that he wanted to leave but they refused to release him so close to the end of the season and waited until tomorrow to release him. Talking to the Western Mail, Williams said “We are talking about a massive club and they came in for me during the transfer window in January, “I didn’t know that at the time but then they came in for me again in March and I found out about their earlier interest. “I didn’t know if Swansea were going to offer me a new contract, so I obviously had to think of myself and my family and told the club I wanted to leave. “It would have been an exciting move going to such a big club, but there were only six weeks of the season left and Swansea didn’t want to let me go. “I think Swansea wanted some money for me but I thought it was strange as I wasn’t in the team at the time. “I think people felt it was strange when I didn’t play in the last couple of games, “But I thought I did well when I came on and gave my all, even though I knew I’d probably be leaving the club. “I was contracted to the club and didn’t want anyone to question my commitment. “But I don’t think Swansea were ever going to offer me new terms because they knew I had other irons in the fire. “I was in and out of Roberto’s office in about two minutes.” |
