New Four Year Deal For Tate

Alan Tate has committed his long term future to the Swans by signing a new four year deal

The deal also has the option of a further year which will take Tate to 2013 and over ten years at the club.

Arriving from Manchester United late in 2002, Tate played a major part in the Swans battle against relegation from the league and eventually signed a permanent deal in 2004 after a further loan spell late in 2003.

His versatility has seen him play at centre back, midfield, right back and of course as a goalkeeper on two occasions - most recently last season against QPR.

"To have someone like Alan signing a long-term deal is a start and it's a step in the right direction," said Swans chairman Huw Jenkins via the club's official website.

 

"We are working our way through the current squad to make sure we have commitment from our players for the next few years.

 

"We are starting to settle things down at the club after the changes during the close season.

 

"I think we all know about Alan's commitment and loyalty to the club and the fact he is happy living in the city, and that's nice to see."
