Swansea City chairman keen to open contract talks with Neil Taylor

Swansea City left-back Neil Taylor will be handed a new contract, says chairman Huw Jenkins.

Swansea City are planning to give left-back Neil Taylor a new contract.

The Welsh full-back was heavily linked with a move away from the Liberty Stadium in January, with West Bromwich Albion and Crystal Palace reportedly keen.

However, club chairman Huw Jenkins says that the club wants to end speculation over Taylor's future by handing him a new deal.

He told The South Wales Evening Post: "That needs to be looked at between now and the summer, it's an obvious one for us to sort out.

"With Neil, this is the first time for a long time that he has had a good run of games, and it always takes players time to get up to speed. As the season has gone on and Neil has played more games, I think we have seen that he is getting back to his best.

"That is great for Neil and great for us as a club."

Taylor is in the Wales squad for their Euro 2016 qualifier with Israel on Saturday.
