On loan Birmingham keeper Artur Krysiak is eyeing up an extended spell at the Liberty Stadium despite only just arriving
Krysiak arrived at the Liberty Stadium on a three month loan from the promotion favourites earlier in the week.
Signed as cover/coimpetition for Dorus De Vries Krysiak is not phased at having to challenge the Dutch keeper who has been just about ever present in his time at the Liberty.
And he also aimed on securing a longer stay at the Swans by telling the Evening Post "Swansea is a big club and I think it's the best chance to promote myself
"I am very happy to be here and it will be a very good challenge to be the No. 1 keeper at Swansea.
"I could stay for a little bit longer than three months. Birmingham don't give me any problems to go on loan.
"I could be number two at Birmingham when Maik Taylor retires but if Roberto Martinez gives me a chance to be here longer I will take it and I will be fighting for the keeper shirt.
"I will do what I can do," said Krysiak, who has two years left of his contract at St Andrews.
"I will work hard and do my best when I get my chance in the reserves and maybe the cup games.
"I will try to play very, very well and put pressure on Dorus.
"I still want to stay even if I don't play because it is a challenge."
Within 24 hours of heading into the Liberty to sign on the dotted line, Krysiak was immediately handed a spot on the bench for Tuesday night's Welsh derby with Cardiff.
And the 19-year-old — who has been tracked by Martinez for several months — admitted the special atmosphere gave him an indication of the direction Swansea are heading in.
"It was amazing because I signed for the club and then I was involved in the derby," he said.
"Even though I was on the bench I could feel the atmosphere created by the supporters and that was special.
"It would be great if they create that atmosphere every week because it was the best I have experienced.
"In the league, Swansea are doing very well. I have seen a few games this season and they look a good team.
"They are a very young team and I think they will have a chance of promotion next year.
"At Birmingham they don't think of any other team – just promotion. But I look at Swansea and see that they have a lot of quality here.
"Every time I go somewhere on loan I want to show how good I am. I think I can get that opportunity here at Swansea."
