Lewis O'Brien out to make an impact for Swansea City

Lewis O’Brien is ready to make an impact for Swansea City, with the midfielder hoping his all-action approach can reap dividends for Luke Williams’ team.

The Swans travel to Ashton Gate for Sunday’s televised lunchtime kick-off looking to record their first win of 2025.

O’Brien joined the Swans on loan from Nottingham Forest on transfer deadline day, and is in contention to make his debut against the Robins.

The 26-year-old brings no shortage of Championship experience having made nearly 150 second-tier appearances across spells with Huddersfield Town and Middlesbrough.

And he is confident he and his new teammates can turn around Swansea’s run of form.

“I did have a few options, but you’ve got to weigh them up and football-wise I hope this will be a step in the right direction,” he said.

“I know the team have had a dip, but every team has it over the course of a season. Swansea have had it recently, but it doesn’t mean you cannot turn things around and get going again in the right direction.

“The Championship is a mad league, and from what I can see the lads here are all in a good place, the gaffer is working hard getting his messages across and we will be ready to go this weekend.

“I have not played loads recently, but I definitely feel ready. I am not here to fill anyone’s shoes, I am coming here as myself to try and bring my attributes to the team.

“I try to do a bit if everything, that’s your job as a midfielder to help start the attacks and to finish them as well.

“I hope I can come here and make an impact.”
