Paul Williams insists Swansea will 'dig deep' to avoid relegation after leaving England Under 20s role to become Bob Bradley's assistant

Swansea have confirmed the appointment of England Under 20s coach Paul Williams as their new assistant manager.

Sportsmail revealed Williams was on the brink of joining the club on Tuesday and he will now link up with the Swans ahead of Saturday's Premier League trip to Everton after leaving his position with the Football Association.

Williams, 45, has signed a two-and-a-half year contract with the Swans, working as number two to the Welsh club's manager Bob Bradley, who was appointed last month.
