Cameron Congreve pens extended Swansea City contract

Swansea City youngster Cameron Congreve has signed a contract extension to keep him at the club until at least the summer of 2025.

The 18-year-old midfielder made his breakthrough at first-team level last term, making five Championship appearances in total.

Congreve’s previous deal had been due to expire at the end of June 2024; his new terms will run until the end of June 2025, with the contract also including the option to extend by a further 12 months.

The teenager put pen to paper on his first pro deal in March, with his impressive development seeing him rewarded with improved terms.

Congreve, a lifelong Swans fan hailing from Blaenau Gwent, has been with the club since first signing up at under-nine level.

He had made the step up to under-23 level at the start of last term, while still a scholar.

Illness disrupted his start to the campaign, but he quickly came to the attention of head coach Russell Martin and was one of a handful of academy players handed the opportunity to train regularly as part of the first-team squad.

Following his debut as a substitute at Blackpool, Congreve also featured against Cardiff, Barnsley, Nottingham Forest and Queens Park Rangers.
