I am a manager, not a pioneer - Bradley

New Swansea City manager Bob Bradley has no interest in being a role model for United States football, insisting his only aim is achieving success at Swansea City.

Bradley, 58, is the first American to manage in the Premier League after replacing Francesco Guidolin.

"This stuff about being a pioneer - I'm not an American manager, I'm a football manager," he explained.

"There's not one person in Swansea who could care less about America."

He continued: "They [Swansea fans] care about their football club and man, I am here to give everything for the fans and the club and I could not be more excited to get the chance.
