Swansea manager latest: Reading boss Jaap Stam in the running for Jacks job

Reading manager Jaap Stam, the former Manchester United defender, has emerged as a candidate to take over at Swansea, according to reports in his native Holland.

Stam took over at the Madejski Stadium during the summer and has won 15 of his 27 games in charge, which has meant a promotion push for the Royals.

Meanwhile, Swansea decided to sack American Bob Bradley after just 85 days in charge and are now on the lookout for a new boss.
