All three players have signed one year deals to be part of the Swansea squad that will take on the Championship next season although I guess it is hard to say how much part all three will play.<\/p>\n
Between them last season they made almost 90 appearances and that was enough for all three to trigger the appearance clause that automatically offered them a new deal. And whilst that new deal is not a given in terms of it being signed none have hesitated long over signing the contracts on offer and guaranteeing their future for the next twelve months as a minimum.<\/p>\n
And Roberto believes that it provides a solid foundation to his Championship squad as he continues the completion of new deals with many of his squad who are out of contract this summer.<\/p>\n
"All three of them have triggered automatic one-year extensions," Martinez told the Evening Post, "and all three of the deals are sorted.<\/p>\n
"Dennis started more than 45 games last season, while Kevin started 23 and Kris was involved in 21.<\/p>\n
"Maybe Kevin and Kris would have liked to have played more, but they still played a huge part in a very successful campaign.<\/p>\n
"I have always said that football makes the decisions, not me, and Kevin and Kris have played their part in setting the standards for us on a daily basis.<\/p>\n
"To be successful regularly, you need those foundations in the dressing room."<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, BBC Sport report that the deals for Ashley Williams and Guillem Bauza are nearing completion "Negotiations are well down the line and we need to finalise a few things with Stockport and see where we are after that," said Martinez. <\/p>\n
"Bussy is just a matter of finalising a few details," added Martinez. <\/p>\n
"He has made it very clear he wants to play his football with Swansea City and we've seen him developing over the last 10 months in a fantastic way. <\/p>\n
"He is a legend already in our history by scoring those two fantastic goals against Gillingham and he's one we are looking for a long future with Swansea City." <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
