Swansea boss Garry Monk has confirmed that there has been ‘absolutely zero’ contact from other clubs regarding striker Wilfried Bony and the club have no intention of selling. The striker has bagged 25 goals in his first season at the Premier League club.
This has led to reported interest from a host of clubs from Arsenal to Chelsea and even German giants Borussia Dortmund. However, Monk has insisted that there has been no contact from any club over a possible move for the 25-year old. He said:
“There have been lots of stories, but we’ve had absolutely zero contact from anyone about Wilf and the fact is that as a club, we don’t care anyway. We don’t want to lose Wilf. We want him to stay with us and for him to be part of our future and the fact is that he is under contract. He is our player so it will be down to us to decide whether he stays or not.
“There is always going to be speculation about someone who scored as many goals as Wilf did last season. It’s a part of football that when a player does well, he will be linked with other clubs. But Wilf is our player, so all the speculation doesn’t matter.”
