SPANISH striker Michu has signed a new four-year contract to keep the prolific goalscorer at Swansea City until 2016, the English Premier League club said yesterday.
"It was an easy decision for me," he told the club website. "I am living a dream here at Swansea.
"I'm probably enjoying my football more than ever. It's easy to play with this team and tonight I have the chance to reach the first final of my career," he added ahead of the League Cup semifinal second leg against Chelsea. Swansea leads 2-0 from the first leg.
Michu has been a revelation of the season with 13 league goals, the fourth highest tally.
Swansea manager Michael Laudrup has described the 26-year-old player, who also fills the role of attacking midfielder, as the "bargain of the season" after he joined from Rayo Vallecano for 2.2 million pounds (US$3.5 million) in the close season.
