Midfielder expected to prove too expensive for Swans

Swansea manager Roberto Martinez does not expect to be able to bring Jordi Gomez back to the Liberty Stadium. The creative midfielder shone in Wales during a season-long loan move from Espanyol, scoring 14 goals for the Championship outfit. Martinez is a fan of Gomez, but believes Swansea would struggle to meet any price tag set by the 23-year-old's parent club. "Jordi is going to be a difficult one," the Swans boss told the South Wales Evening Post. "We are talking about a player who has grown massively in the last season and his valuation has gone through the roof."
