Ben Cabango deal great news for player and club, says Luke Williams

Head coach Luke Williams believes Ben Cabango’s decision to sign a new contract can only be good news for the player and for Swansea City.

The Wales international has put pen to paper on a deal through to the summer of 2028, having been due to be out of contract at the end of the current campaign with the news being announced on Christmas Eve.

Cabango, 24, has been in outstanding form for much of this season, and excelled again as Swansea kept a sixth clean sheet of the season in beating Queens Park Rangers 3-0 on Boxing Day.

And Williams feels the certainty of knowing where Cabango’s future lies is a great positive to take into 2025.

“It’s great news, and I think it showed in his performance that he had a clear mind. He was at his very best,” said Williams.

“He has not had a bad game this season, but there had been an edge missing because it is such a difficult moment, such a huge moment and we are so happy he has made the right decision.

“It showed on the pitch that he has that clear mind, he knows his future is committed to this club so it’s been a great couple of days.”
