Michael Laudrup keen to bring in striker

Swansea City manager Michael Laudrup admits that he will be looking to bring in a striker during the January transfer window.

Michael Laudrup has admitted that he will be looking to bring in another striker during the January transfer window.

Swansea City's attacking players have been struck with a series of injuries this season, with Michu, Wilfried Bony and Nathan Dyer all missing games.

The club's manager told Sky Sports News: "Right now we have two players out for six or a little more weeks so we may have to see in the market in January but for the next two or three games we have these 19 players and I have a lot of confidence in this squad.

"Two weeks ago I was asked about the transfer window and I said maybe we don't need to sign anyone and in seven days we lost two players for several weeks in Michu and Dyer.

"The two I just mentioned to you, one is a striker, the other is a winger so it's not a wild guess to think we are going for an offensive player. I'm happy with loans but the thing is there will be a lot of clubs looking for strikers so it will be tough for us but we have to do as good a job as we can."

Swansea face Chelsea in the Premier League later today.
