Wilfried Bony signs new Swansea City deal

Swansea City striker Wilfried Bony signs a new one-year deal with the club.

Swansea City have confirmed that striker Wilfried Bony has signed a one-year contract extension with the club.

The 25-year-old's new deal at the Liberty Stadium is due to expire in summer 2018.

Ivory Coast international Bony has scored 29 goals in 61 games for the Swans since he joined the club for a record £12m from Vitesse Arnhem in July 2013.

"It's great news for the club," manager Garry Monk told Swansea's official website. "I've spoken a lot about what Bony has brought to the club not just on the pitch but off it as well.

"These types of players are ones that we do our best to keep at the club for a long time, but it's also important that we see commitment from that player towards the club, his teammates and the fans. Bony has shown that he is very committed to this club by signing an extension here."

Bony has found the net four times in 11 appearances for Swansea so far this season.
