The
club have named Garry Monk as their new head coach alongside current
first team coach Alan Curtis "for the foreseeable future."
Laudrup has been sacked despite winning the League Cup with the club
last season and guiding the club into the knockout stage of the Europa
League. “It is a decision we have taken reluctantly,’" confirmed Swansea City chairman Huw Jenkins.
"But it’s a decision made in the best interests of Swansea City Football Club and our supporters.
"It is the first time in nearly 10 years that the club has parted with a manager in this way, but we had to remove the constant uncertainty surrounding the club and Michael’s long-term future with us.
"I had a meeting with Michael today in a final attempt to support him and establish a way to improve the work of the backroom team to secure the results we need over the final 14 Premier League games.
"However, after thinking long and hard about the best way forward, I felt it was unlikely we would achieve a stable environment at the club to allow us to get back to basics and produce the performance levels that have served Swansea City so well over the last few years.
"Now we need to put that uncertainty behind us and move forward as a united football club on all fronts, while placing on record our gratitude to Michael for the work he has done over the last 18 months and wish him well for the future." posted by Emanto Ngaloru Feb 4, 2014.
