World Cup on the horizon for Swansea's Jonathan de Guzman
JONATHAN DE GUZMAN is ready to swap relegation heartbreak for World Cup glory in Rio.
A year ago the Swansea midfielder was part of the Villarreal side relegated from La Liga. That disappointment triggered a season-long loan to Swansea where De Guzman, 25, has been outstanding ahead of today’s trip to Norwich.
His performances have brought him to the attention of Holland coach Louis van Gaal and De Guzman, whose future will be decided in the summer, said: “This season has been great for me. It’s every footballer’s dream to play in a World Cup.”
