Caulker would welcome Swans switch

Tottenham Hotspur centre-back Steven Caulker would be "more than happy" to seal a loan move to Swansea City.

Caulker is a known target for Swans boss Brendan Rodgers, with the Barclays Premier League newcomers having already held talks with Spurs over a deal for the highly-regarded 19-year-old, who impressed while on a similar loan spell at Bristol City last term.
The Robins are keen to bring Caulker back to Ashton Gate but he said: "I think that a Premier League loan will be the best option for me next season and if something along those lines can happen this summer it would be great.
"If I stay at Tottenham then so be it but it all depends on what crops up and if it means going back on loan to a Championship club again then I will do. It is all about playing regular first-team games at my age, so hopefully something will happen this summer.
"Any sort of experience at Premier League level would interest me to be honest and I wouldn't turn anything down at this stage. Obviously, I played against them (Swansea) twice last season and they play some very good football, so if that was an option I'd be more than happy to go there.
"I wouldn't see it as a drop down at all so we will just have to wait and see if their interest turns into something concrete because I'd love to play Premier League football next season."
