De Boer would listen to Swans

Ajax boss Frank de Boer admits he would like to hear what Swansea have to say after being linked with the managerial vacancy at the Liberty Stadium.

The Swans are currently without a full-time manager after they sacked Garry Monk last month, with his former assistant Alan Curtis now at the helm in a caretaker capacity.

De Boer has previously expressed an interest in taking on a job in the Premier League and indicated he could be tempted to ply his trade in Wales if the club presented him with the right project.

"First you have to see what the plan is at a club and what I and the people I would take with me could add to it," the Dutchman said.

"The last club I was linked with was Swansea City. I have had no contact with them at this time. But what if these people paint me a pretty picture that they are in that category of clubs with which I could do something beautiful?

"Like clubs such as Tottenham and Liverpool. Those are the sort of clubs with which you would want to work. But the most important thing would be the feeling I get."

The 45-year-old guided the Amsterdam giants to four successful Eredivisie titles following his appointment in 2010, and his side top the league standings this season, going into 2016.
