Gylfi Sigurdsson: The £10 Million Man?

 

Icelandic midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson has impressed for Swansea since joining on loan from Hoffenheim in January.

Sigurdsson, 22, has said he'd like to stay with the Swans after this season. However, Hoffenheim still own his rights.

The German club reportedly want £10 million for his services.

From the Daily Mirror:

Kop chief Kenny ­Dalglish, Everton coach Jimmy Lumsden and United spy Martin Ferguson all watched Sigurdsson dazzle against Bolton on Saturday. Swansea would love to extend the former Reading player’s loan for another year, but Hoffenheim­ know they can cash in – with Newcastle also admirers – and will sell to the highest bidder.

The loan deal has been controversial­ with the German side’s supporters.

They still sing Sigurdsson’s name every week and only a major fee for the 22-year-old will take the heat out of the ­decision.

I'm with the Hoffenheim fans. Why don't they just bring Sigurdsson back?

All that and more await inside.
