Although there has been much talk about several famous names being considered to take over the reins of the "Swansea" team, today, somewhat unexpectedly, it was announced that until the end of the season, the team will be led by former interim coach Alan Curtis.
Curtis became the interim coach after Garry Monk's dismissal and led the team in five matches. It was enough for the team's owner Huw Jenkins to decide to leave him as the team's coach until the end of the season.
"We are convinced that this is the right decision for the Swansea City club. Alan has been with us when things were going well and when things were going badly. He has been with our team as one of the coaches or leaders for twelve years. He understands the important work he has been given. He will need to make an effort for the team to find the right level of play and motivation and achieve the team's goal - to stay in the Premier League. We believe that no one else has more knowledge and experience than Alan for this job," Jenkins said on the club's official website.
After twenty rounds, "Swansea City" is in eighteenth place in the English Premier League.
