Michu urges Swansea to deal in Liverpool forward Aspas

Michu has urged Swansea boss Michael Laudrup to try and sign Liverpool forward Iago Aspas on loan in January. The 26-year-old has yet to score in seven appearances at Anfield and is currently down the pecking order in Brendan Rodgers' first-team plans.

"We (the Spanish players) are hoping he can come here on loan," Michu is quoted as saying in the Daily Mirror. "It would be a pleasure to play with him. Iago has had injuries, but he has quality. He deserves to play in the Premier League,"

"He has been unlucky. At Liverpool, they have Luis Suarez and (Daniel) Sturridge, who have scored a lot of goals. Suarez is, along with Diego Costa and others, one of the best strikers in Europe."
