Uncertain Futures For Trundle And Dobbie
Huw Jenkins has revealed that there is no decision as yet on the futures of Lee Trundle or Stephen Dobbie
The Swansea City Chairman was speaking to the Evening Post about the future of two players who could yet extend their careers at the club.
Trundle has been officially released by Bristol City and is now a free agent whilst Dobbie helped Blackpool to the Premier League last Saturday before seeing his own loan deal expire with his future uncertain.
Jenkins told the Evening Post "I will be speaking in general terms to Lee this week
"What will happen with him? The answer is that I don't know at the moment.
"I don't think Paulo has made his decisions yet as far as our forward situation goes.
"It's a question of who is available as well as who we have got, and there are always a couple of options there.
"At the moment Paulo is weighing up his options and he has not decided either way regarding any of the forward positions.
"Stephen went to Blackpool to get games under his belt and to get more experience at Championship level," he added.
"He has scored five times for Blackpool and three times for us, and of course we signed him to play for Swansea.
"But Paulo has to make a decision this summer on where he can fit in and if he can fit in.
"He has two years on his contract and, as things stand, he will be back with us for pre-season.
"But as I say, nothing has been decided as far as the forward positions go."

Brave Swans in memorable game at Carrow Road It was a pulsating game to watch and very much one of my favourite away games of the season. The Swans looked an entirely different side to that we saw at Middlesbrough when it is clear a catalyst for commitment was agreed behind the scenes at Swansea City. To a man every player grafted and
wore the shirt with pride. To see the players really acknowledge the Swans support at Carrow Road this afternoon was emotional.
Swansea reject Cullen contract and trigger one year option Liam Cullen has had his request for a new contract dismissed by Swansea City after discussions broke down last week. The lowest paid ‘senior’ player at the club ( he is twenty five) asked for a better contract increasing his £3,500 a week to around £7,000 a week over three years.
Sam Parker hasn’t turned down a new deal, he is willing to negotiate He was a revelation for the Swans for the few games he played this season, and now it emerges Sam Parker has ‘turned down’ a new Swansea City contract. News is thin on the ground, and some of it just incorrect as he looks to involve his representatives in some further negotiations. Plus his current contract runs for two more years.
Swansea City : The vision is clearer, so Jamal Lowe ? There were some worrying moments for the Swans yesterday, on three occasions mistakes from playing out from the back nearly saw the home side score. And is there now a case for Jamal Lowe to be offered a contract at Swansea ?
