Exciting News for Swansea City Fans! ⚽✨
Swansea City has wrapped up an incredible summer transfer window with the signing of Burnley’s winger, Manuel Benson, on a season-long loan. This move faced a bit of last-minute drama due to paperwork delays, but it’s now officially confirmed. Benson is all set to dazzle us wearing the number 21 shirt.
The 28-year-old winger, who played a pivotal role in Burnley’s promotion triumph during the 2022-23 season with 11 goals and three assists, becomes the 12th addition to our squad this summer. Manager Alan Sheehan can’t wait to work with him, expressing enthusiasm for Benson’s ability to bring quality, energy, and work-rate both on and off the pitch.
Director of football Richard Montague is excited about the dynamism Benson will inject into Swansea’s play, highlighting his speed and creative flair as invaluable assets. Plus, global head of analytics and recruitment, Adam Worth, is thrilled to have secured a player they’ve been keenly watching for months.
In contrast, it’s a farewell to Josh Ginnelly, who leaves the club by mutual consent. Though his time on the pitch was hampered by an injury, we wish Josh all the best for the future.
All eyes are now on Benson to light up the field and boost Swansea City’s prospects this season. Welcome to Swansea, Manuel Benson! 🦢💪
