There has been continued speculation over Williams' future this summer after Arsene Wenger identified him as one of his primary targets ahead of the new season.<br />

However, contrary to media reports Jenkins admitted that no offer has been tabled for the newly appointed captain as of yet.<br />

"Ash has grown with us. His performances and personality have grown with the club and he is a vital part of our team," Jenkins declared.<br />

"He is a big part of our defence and now he is captain as well. He is a good leader to have at the club.<br />

"As always, we want to keep those players and we hope he is with us for many years to come."<br />

The Swans have put a hefty price tag on the defender so as to put off any interest Arsenal might have in the 28 year old.
