Gylfi Sigurdsson is 'vital' to Bob Bradley as the Swansea boss expects interest in the Icelander in January

Swansea manager Bob Bradley has described star midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson as 'a vital part' of the Welsh club's set-up as the January transfer window looms.

The Iceland playmaker is in his second spell with the Swans, and such is the 27-year-old's imperious form, that Bradley accepts other clubs will be looking at him.

Sigurdsson's market value is likely to be £20million or more, but Bradley has underlined his importance ahead of Wednesday's Premier League clash against West Brom at The Hawthorns.
