Swansea add Jurgen Klinsmann to managerial shortlist
TARGET: Klinsmann is one of three on Swansea's shortlist

The Welsh side have already pinpointed the out-of-work Ryan Giggs and Bob Bradley, the coach Klinsmann succeeded boss of the US national side.

Bradley, 58, is currently at Le Havre and has met with Swans chairman Huw Jenkins.

Klinsmann would be a headline-grabbing appointment if the Premier League outfit decide to part company with Guidolin.

The 60-year-old Italian is under pressure with Swansea having picked up just one point since their opening day win at Burnley.

Their American owners, Steve Kaplan and Jason Levien, who took control in July, are flying in to watch tomorrow’s home game with in-form Liverpool and another defeat could spell the end for Guidolin.

"Yes, I am worried I could be sacked if we lose,” said Guidolin yesterday.

"It is an option, it is a possibility. I know it could happen. In my mind I know all the possibilities – and this is one.

"But I am not surprised because I know this can happen. Working in Italy is a good experience in this regard because sometimes the coach or manager is sacked before the season starts.”
