Having signed for the club as an eight-year-old, young defender Joe Rodon became an important member of the first team during the 2018-19 season.

He made his debut in the Championship victory over Preston North End and appeared a further 27 times in all competitions under Graham Potter.

Rodon, who represents Wales at under-21 level, was also called up by Ryan Giggs to the senior squad last November.

His efforts were rewarded when he penned a new deal that ties him to the Swans until 2022.

Rodon, who hails from Llangyfelach, enjoyed plenty of success at academy level.

The centre-half was part of the under-19s side that lifted the FAW Youth Cup in 2015, before helping the under-23s to the league and cup double two years later.
