Following the constant speculation regarding the future of midfielder Darren Pratley, Swansea City chairman Huw Jenkins gives supporters an update on the current situation.
I can confirm that we recently received a written offer from Nottingham Forest for Darren Pratley.
However, the offer is nowhere near the £1.5m being reported and is not an up-front fee.
The offer is also nowhere near the level we feel is right for a player of Darren's ability at this point.
We have been in negotiations with Darren's agent and made an offer to match the hypothetical terms the agent somehow knows are on the table at Nottingham Forest.
Following discussions with his agent, he has now stated that Darren does not want further talks about contracts or new deals and just wants to concentrate on his football.
From Swansea City's point of view, taking into account the value and type of offer on the table from Forest, plus what's on offer to us as a football club over the next six months to achieve a top six finish, the club may feel it is in our best interests to keep Darren on board and allow him to see out his contract.
It is important to keep our supporters informed of developments, but until anything else materialises, that is the situation we are in.
