Swansea City defender Tivonge Rushesha has signed a contract extension through to the end of the 2022-23 season.

The 18-year-old had been due to be out of contract in the summer of 2022.

Zimbabwean-born Rushesha is currently recovering from a serious knee injury he sustained in December.

The Wales age-grade international made his first-team bow in last season’s Carabao Cup tie against Cambridge United, and has been one of several young players promoted to the senior squad under head coach Steve Cooper.
