Bob Bradley describes joining Premier League side Swansea City as "special"

New Swansea City manager Bob Bradley says that being given the chance to work in the Premier League is "special".

New Swansea City manager Bob Bradley has described the chance to coach in the Premier League as "special".

The former USA head coach will become the first American to manage in the top flight when he takes charge of his first Swansea game after the international break.

The 58-year-old was immediately hired by the Welsh club following the sacking of Francesco Guidolin.

Bradley has been in charge of Le Havre since November 2015, and he oversaw his final game at the French Ligue 2 side last night.

"To go to the Premier League is special," BBC Sport quotes Bradley as saying. "It's still an opportunity for me, for my family and for American football. That's important."

Bradley's first Swansea game will be away to Arsenal on October 15.
