Frank de Boer reportedly turns down the opportunity to speak to Swansea City over the vacant managerial position at the Liberty Stadium.

Swansea City have reportedly failed with an approach for Frank de Boer as they look to find a replacement for Bob Bradley.

On Tuesday night, Bradley was sacked from his role at the Liberty Stadium after just 11 matches and 85 days in charge, and a number of out-of-work managers have already been linked with the position.

According to Bleacher Report, the Welsh outfit attempted to set up talks with De Boer, who endured a 14-match spell with Inter Milan at the start of this season.

However, it has been claimed that the Dutchman turned down the Premier League's side interest, leaving the Swans to look elsewhere for a new boss.

Ryan Giggs, Gary Rowett and Chris Coleman are all said to be in contention for the role.
