Swansea City 'approach Willy Sagnol'

Willy Sagnol has reportedly emerged as a possible managerial target for Swansea City.

Last week, Swansea announced that Carlos Carvalhal had left his position at the Liberty Stadium after the club were relegated from the Premier League.

Graham Potter and Frank de Boer have both been linked with the vacant position but according to The Mirror, Sagnol is also in contention.

The 41-year-old has not held a permanent senior role in the dugout since managing Bordeaux between 2014 and 2016, but the former France international has been involved on the backroom staff at Bayern Munich.

Swansea are expected to hold talks with the former full-back in the coming days and Sagnol is said to hold an interest in a move to English football.
