Ryan Manning arrived in SA1 from QPR in October 2020, putting pen to paper on a three-year deal with the Swans.

Republic of Ireland international Manning made 21 appearances in his first season, making his debut in a 2-0 home win over Stoke City.

His versatility proved useful as he was utilised at left-back and left wing-back during 2020-21. In 2021-22, Manning made 44 appearances scoring twice, impressing in the unfamiliar centre-back position.

He reverted to a left-back or left wing-back role for the 2022-23 season and enjoyed an outstanding campaign as he chipped in with five goals and nine assists.

His showings saw him crowned Supporters' Player of the Year following a year where he created more chances than any other player in the Championship.
