Report: Wilfried Bony wants Swansea City exit

Wilfried Bony has reportedly told Swansea City that he wants to leave them for a Champions League club this month.

Speculation has mounted that Manchester City and Real Madrid are weighing up winter moves for the 26-year-old, who signed a contract extension in November.

That signature has negated a £19m buyout clause that was written into his initial deal in South Wales, allowing the Swans to effectively name their price, according to The Telegraph.

The report goes on to claim that Swansea chairman Huw Jenkins is holding out for around £30m for the Ivory Coast international, who would request a £100,000-a-week deal.

Bony is currently on international duty ahead of the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations, which begins on January 17 in Equatorial Guinea.
