Michael Laudrup says that he will cut down his Swansea City squad from 25 to 23 but is unsure who he will sell in the summer window.

Swansea City manager Michael Laudrup has revealed that he will sell players before the end of the transfer window.

The Danish coach, who moved to the Liberty Stadium in June, has claimed that he has yet to decide who will be given the chop.

"Everyone starts out the same in pre-season," Laudrup told the South Wales Evening Post. "The market is open until August 31 and a lot of things can happen in that time - a lot of things can happen in the last week of the window.

"The fair thing to do is to look at everyone in training and in some games. Eventually we will reach a moment where we have to make some decisions."

Laudrup is keen to trim his senior squad down to 23 players, despite Premier League rules stating that 25 are permitted.
