Swansea City<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Swansea City<\/a><\/abbr> boss Brendan Rodgers hopes to secure defender Gary Monk to a new contract.<\/p>\n

Rodgers would like to reward long-serving defender Monk, who could miss the start of the season through injury, for helping the club win promotion to the Premier League.<\/p>\n

Swansea are thought to have offered the 32-year-old a new three-year deal to keep him at the Liberty Stadium for the rest of his career.<\/p>\n

\u201cGarry deserves a new contract,\u201d Rodgers told the club\u2019s official website. \u201cHe is a wonderful captain \u2013 a great leader for us both on and off the field.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s no doubt that over the next few years we will have to look after him and manage him \u2013 that\u2019s something you have to do with a lot of players who are over 30.<\/p>\n

\u201cGarry is very professional and looks after his body really well.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe has been unfortunate with some injuries but when he plays, like in the play-off final, his contribution is very, very important.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe is a key figure for us. I want to secure him and secure things in his mind so he can go forward with the club for the next three years.\u201d<\/p>\n
