Swansea City defender Neil Taylor signs a new contract that will keep him at the Liberty Stadium until 2016.

Swansea City full-back Neil Taylor has revealed his delight at signing a new long-term contract at the Liberty Stadium.

Taylor, who is currently out injured with a broken ankle, has committed himself to the Premier League club until 2016, and the 23-year-old has praised the club for retaining their faith in him despite being ruled out for the season.

He told Sky Sports News: "We spoke about a new contract before I broke my ankle, but when something like that happens you do wonder what will be.

"But in fairness to the chairman (Huw Jenkins) he text me the day after the injury and told me not to worry about the contract. Full credit to the club, they have been as good as their word.

"Both myself and the club are happy with it. I see my long-term future here – everything is right for me."

Taylor has made 71 appearances for Swansea since he joined the club in 2010 from Wrexham.
