Swansea willing to make Williams highest paid at club

Swansea City are willing to make captain Ashley Williams their highest paid player.

WalesOnline says Swans could have to make Williams the highest-paid player in the club's history if they want to seal a new contract for their captain.

But, as a string of clubs eye-up the centre-back with Sunderland making him their No.1 summer target, it has been made clear the Swans star won't be on his way out of South Wales even if a deal can't be reached.

Talks have begun over a new contract for the 29-year-old skipper who only has one year left on his existing Liberty Stadium terms.
