Head coach Paul Clement says Swansea City legend Alan Curtis has a "job for life" with the Premier League club.
But he confirmed Curtis would no longer be part of his first team coaching set up and would be offered another role.
"We want him to stay at the club," Clement told BBC Radio Wales Sport.
The long-serving Curtis, 62, played more than 350 games for the Swans and has been caretaker manager three times. Swansea say Clement "is still in the process of finalising" his staff.
Former Derby County boss Clement was appointed on Tuesday following the departure of Bob Bradley last week.
