Routledge has revealed he is ready to pledge his long-term future to Swansea City.

Routledge, who has been one of the club's star performers this season, has 18 months to run on his current contract at the Liberty Stadium after arriving from Newcastle in the summer of 2011.

The former Crystal Palace man insists he is enjoying life at Swansea and would be happy to commit his long-term future to the South Wales outfit.

"Hopefully I can stay at Swansea for longer than my current contract as I'm enjoying playing football for the club," Routledge told The Sun.

"I get on really well with the boys, the staff and everyone in the city."
