Swansea City's season is over and planning for next term can now begin in earnest.
Recruitment planning took a hit late last month with the news of football director Mark Allen's surprise departure, but boss Russell Martin believes it won't affect their approach too much. He said on Friday : "We’ve been really heavily involved in all of the planning. We’ve brought a vision of the team here and the club support us as much as they can to help us achieve that vision. We’re really clear in what we need. We’re really clear on who we want. What we’re not so clear on is the time frame.
"Julian (Winter) and Mark had loads of discussions. The decision has come that Mark is no longer here. I don’t think the club will ever make a decision that they don’t feel prepared for. Nothing has changed for us. It’s no problem. Everyone has real clarity in what we’re doing and why we’re doing it."
