Neil Taylor: 'Staying at Swansea City was an easy decision to make'

Neil Taylor insists that it was an "easy decision" for him to sign a new Swansea City contract.

Swansea City full-back Neil Taylor has insisted that he didn't need to do much deliberating when the club tabled a new contract.

The 26-year-old put pen to paper on a fresh four-year deal this morning, despite still having one year left on his previous contract.

Taylor is confident that manager Garry Monk will push the club forward next season after they claimed their best-ever finish to a Premier League campaign by grabbing eighth place.

"It was an easy decision," Taylor told the club's official website. "I'm glad we've managed to get it done early. Both myself and the club wanted it to happen. I'm really happy and focused on Swansea.

"We've been so successful in recent years and the club is really moving forward now. Last season was our best yet. We have a young, hungry manager and everything is progressing here both on and off the field. I think we'll strengthen again this summer, so as a player there is no other place you would want to be right now."

Taylor has been a Swansea player since 2010.
