Nathan Wood: Swansea City reject bid for defender amid Southampton interest

Swansea City have rejected a bid for defender Nathan Wood, according to head coach Michael Duff.

The 21-year-old has been linked with Southampton and a reunion with former Swans boss Russell Martin.

Martin has previously said that Wood is a "real leader" and has the ability to go to the "very top" of the game.

"I think there's a bid that got rejected," said Duff, who would not confirm if the offer was from Championship rivals Saints.

"It's a sign of having good players. If no-one was bidding for any of the players, we'd be useless.
