Swansea City forward Michu admits that he is 'desperate' to make the final of the League Cup this season.

Swansea City forward Michu has admitted that it would be "special" if the Welsh outfit could make the final of the League Cup this season.

The 26-year-old has proved to be one of the signings of the season after scoring 12 league goals since his move from Rayo Vallecano in the summer.

However, the Swans enter Wednesday's League Cup quarter-final clash with Middlesbrough off the back of a disappointing home defeat to Norwich City at the weekend.

"Why not think about getting to the final? Let's hope so - it would be special to get to Wembley," Michu told Marca.

"The bad thing is that it [double against Norwich] didn't help us win any points. That's a shame. It counts for the individual statistics, but if it doesn't help us get a point then it's not something to be happy about.

"Those two goals didn't taste the same as the two against Arsenal. We took the three points there and I was happy on that day."

Michu has warded off possible interest by revealing that he is "happy" at the club.
