Michael Laudrup likens Leon Britton to Raul
MICHAEL LAUDRUP has likened Swansea stalwart Leon Britton to Raul. Midfielder Britton, 30, makes his 400th Swans appearance at home against Reading tomorrow and boss Laudrup says he is just like Raul, who played more than 700 times for Real Madrid in a 16-year spell.
Laudrup, a former Bernabeu star, said:
“You don’t often see a player play 400 games with the same club any more. Raul did the same.
“Leon knows what Swansea is about.
"He has been here a long time and fits into our way of playing."
