Amat extends Swansea stay

Swansea City defender Jordi Amat has agreed a new one-year contract with the Premier League club.

Amat arrived from Espanyol on a four-year deal in 2013 and has made 48 appearances for Swansea, agreeing an extension to 2018 in March last year.

The Spaniard has once again extended his stay by a year despite recent managerial changes at the Welsh club following Francesco Guidolin s appointment as head coach for the remainder of 2015-16.

The Italian took over from interim boss Alan Curtis this month following Garry Monk s departure in December.

Chievo striker Alberto Paloschi arrived on Friday as Guidolin s first senior signing, while 21-year-old forward Kenji Gorre has been recalled from his season-long loan spell with Eredivisie side ADO Den Haag.

After seeing his game-time limited, both parties agreed it was in the best interest of the player to return to the Liberty, Swansea said in a statement.
