Former Birmingham City boss John Eustace is reportedly not interested in becoming the new Swansea boss.

Eustace was sacked by Blues during the October international break with the club fifth in the Championship. They have since appointed Wayne Rooney as his successor who has struggled badly with Birmingham now 15th and having just one win under the Manchester United legend.


Swansea are also struggling with the Welsh club currently 18th in the table. The Swans sacked manager Michael Duff on Monday in response to their poor form which has seen them win just one of their last eight matches.

However, our colleagues at WalesOnline understand that Eustace is not currently interested in the Swansea job. Whilst they state that it remains unclear as to whether he has been approached, they report Eustace would not be interested.

It is also said that the former Blues boss turned down the Swans shortly before Russell Martin took over in 2021.

The bookies are already putting their backing behind Chris Davies, who was reportedly in the running last summer before joining Ange Postecoglou's coaching team at Tottenham. Whether he would be interested in giving up his position to move to the Championship remains to be seen.
