Gylfi Sigurdsson committed to Swansea City, says Paul Clement

Swansea City boss Paul Clement says star player Gylfi Sigurdsson is purely focused on helping the club avoid relegation from the Premier League.

The Icelandic midfielder has recently been quoted as saying it would be a "dream" to play for one of the big European clubs.

Clement has previously said Sigurdsson would flourish at that level.

But the Swans' head coach said: "[He] is very motivated to play well here and to help us remain in this league."

Clement said he had no problems with Sigurdsson, 27, having aspirations to better himself.

"I think it's good for a young player to have ambition to play at the very highest level.
