Swansea manager Roberto Martinez has allowed midfielder Mikel Alonso to train with the club after he was released by Real Sociedad.The 28-year-old, who is the elder brother of Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso, already has experience on these shores after a loan spell with Bolton last season but failed to secure a deal at the Reebok Stadium after he made just a handful of appearances.
Martinez already has a number of midfield options and has allowed the Basque midfielder to build up his sharpness rather than seeking to give him a contract at the Liberty Stadium.
