Vipotnik enjoying challenge of wearing number nine
- Published
Zan Vipotnik says he likes the challenge of wearing the number nine jersey for Swansea City.
The Slovenia international has been in and out of the side under Luke Williams since joining the Swans after leaving Bordeaux in the summer.
But he scored his third goal of the campaign inside two minutes as Swansea won 2-1 at Derby County on Wednesday night to move up to 11th in the Championship table.
The 22-year-old hopes to add to his goal tally as the Swans host bottom side Portsmouth on Saturday (15:00 GMT).
"I feel really good. It's a tough league," he told BBC Sport Wales.
"When we start to win it's easier and I hope that we will continue next Saturday.
"It's not easy to wear, but it's an amazing challenge to wear the number nine in Swansea.
"It's nice for me and nice for the team. It's amazing when you score in the first five minutes, it helps the team a lot.
"It's my third goal, it was an amazing goal and I will try to do it every week."
