Michu facing six-week lay-off

Swansea have been dealt a blow after it was confirmed that Spanish forward Michu is likely to be sidelined for six weeks when he undergoes ankle surgery.

The 27-year-old, who has scored 28 goals for the Swans since joining from Rayo Vallecano in the summer of 2012, has been hindered by ankle and knee issues throughout the current campaign.
