Swansea manager Bob Bradley not eyeing move for son Michael Bradley

Swansea City manager Bob Bradley says he has not discussed the possibility of signing his son Michael Bradley in the January transfer window.

The younger Bradley, who helped Toronto FC advance to the MLS Cup final on Wednesday, has been linked to a possible move to the Premier League club since his father was hired in October.

But Bob Bradley told The Front 3 Football Podcast that there have not been any internal talks about bringing in theĀ United States captain.

"We've not discussed that one," Bradley said in a podcast released on Wednesday. "Michael is obviously completely focused on the second leg against Montreal in the hope of helping Toronto to an MLS Cup final.

"There would be so many parts of that discussion, it's not something that in the moment has been discussed at all."

The Swans boss also played down the possibility of a swoop, saying his son was committed to Toronto FC.

"Toronto was a big challenge. It's not been an easy situation, but they've made progress every year, and I know how committed and how motivated he is -- and how excited he is -- about the opportunity they have," he said.

"So in the moment, I'm excited for him. You know -- we've had moments where our football paths have crossed, but at the same time it doesn't always work out either.

"So I would highly doubt it's the kind of thing that fits well at the moment."
