Swansea owners insist club will not be 'bullied' into selling star midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson after turning down £40m bid from Everton

Swansea's American owners say they will not be 'bullied' into selling Icelandic playmaker Gylfi Sigurdsson.

Sigurdsson dropped out of the Swans' 10-day tour to the US on Thursday morning just hours before the squad's departure across the Atlantic.

The club said Sigurdsson was not in 'the right frame of mind to travel' with so much speculation over his future.

It is understood that Swansea have turned down a £40million offer from Everton for the 27-year-old.
