Jenkins: No Big Summer Spending

Swansea City manager Huw Jenkins has warned the club will not overspend in the summer transfer window.

Swansea booked a place in the second tier of british football for the first time in 24 years after winning over a Gillingham side looking to avoid the drop to League Two. It marks the accumulation of a year of hard work by Roberto Martinez and his staff.

Roberto Martinez managed to spend a fraction of what Kenny Jackett spent on his squad aand achieved automatic promotion in his firsutt season.

The only real cost last Summer was Hull City striker Darryl Duffy, who cost £250,000 but he has failed to live up to expectations.

The star performers this season were all bought for next-to-nothing fees. Dutchmen Ferrie Bodde and Dorus De Vries joined on frees while Angel Rangel, Andrea Orlandi, Guillem Bauza and Jason Scotland all joined for small five-figure fees.

The Swans look set to repeat that style of buying this year, with the only 6-figure fee to be spent on Stockport County defender Ashley Williams, who is currently on loan with us until the end of the season.

The Welsh international is set to sign for £350,000, according to the Western Mail.
