Paul Clement: Swansea will keep faith with struggling on loan Bayern Munich midfielder Renato Sanches

Paul Clement has promised Renato Sanches' difficult loan spell at Swansea will not be cut short.

Sanches has endured a torrid time in south Wales since joining on a season-long deal from Bayern Munich in August.

The 20-year-old Portugal midfielder, who was named the best young player at Euro 2016, has failed to score or provide an assist during a spell punctuated by injuries and poor form.

And Sanches' season hit a new low at Chelsea on Wednesday night when he was substituted at half-time after regularly giving possession away.
