Swansea City director Jake Silverstein says the club's American owners remain committed to building a path they hope will bring the club back to the Premier League, but admits further efforts to balance to books are likely this summer.
Speaking on the eve of Swansea's final game of the season at home to Queens Park Rangers, Silverstein said the Swans hierarchy had been left delighted by the progress made by the team under boss Russell Martin, adding that everyone at the club was committed to pulling in the same direction ahead of what is likely to be an important summer.
In a statement released on Friday evening, Sliverstein said: "Firstly, we are proud of the work that has been done this season by everyone at the club, and in particular we want to thank Julian Winter and the rest of his leadership team for navigating the club through yet another season complicated by Covid-19. When we first met with Russell and spoke about him taking on the head coach role, we were convinced that he was the right man to entrust with redefining the way we play football. Just as crucially, we were totally aligned on our vision to build a culture that embodies the core values of our club—integrity, community, connectedness, and love for the game.
