The Swansea City defender scored his second goal of the season on Friday night in the 1-1 draw with Millwall.\u00a0\u00a0 With his contract up at the end of the season talks have started over a new deal but Rangel says he is happy to leave those talks for now to his agent whilst he concentrates on the job in hand – continuing the Swans promotion push.<\/p>\n
“I said to the manager, I’m open to discuss a new contract, but my main job is playing football,” he told the Evening Post.<\/p>\n
“The club have to speak to my agent and whatever happens, he will let me know.<\/p>\n
“I said to the gaffer, I don’t want to be thinking about negotiations because it’s not my job.<\/p>\n
“I’m happy to speak about a new contract, but so far, we are just in talks.<\/p>\n
I haven’t received any calls yet so that means they are still in talks, I guess,” he said.<\/p>\n
“It’s always good to have a club’s support behind you and if it’s sorted soon, good.<\/p>\n
“If it’s going to take longer, it’s not a thing that worries me.<\/p>\n
“This kind of thing hopefully won’t affect the group and we can stick together.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
