New Swansea manager Bob Bradley believes his appointment signals an important moment for football in the United States.
Bradley will become the first American to manage in the Premier League following Swansea's decision to sack Francesco Guidolin and replace him with the 58-year-old former USA boss.
Speaking after his final game in charge of French Ligue 2 side Le Havre on Monday night, Bradley said: "In this moment the opportunity to go to the Premiership on many levels is special.
"I am sorry to leave, especially at this moment, but it's still an opportunity for me, for my family and for American football.
