Centre-forward Caleb Demery has joined Swansea City's academy from JD Cymru Premier side Briton Ferry Llansawel.  

The 19-year-old was previously involved in Swansea City’s academy ranks up until under-13s' level, before making the switch to Welsh League football. 

After his first spell with Swansea, the striker joined Pontardawe and then made the move to Briton Ferry Llansawel.

Coach Anthony Wright said: "We are pleased to have Caleb part of the squad this year, as a club we pride ourselves on giving the best local talent the chance to showcase themselves. 

"We certainly feel that Caleb has been a high performer for the past two years playing for his club Briton ferry and Wales. 

"Caleb has brilliant numbers with assists and goals last season so we are hopeful that he can produce the same level with us."
