Ronald is hungry for more after putting his injury frustration behind him to score his first goal at the Swansea.com Stadium in the Carabao Cup win over Gillingham.

The Brazilian winger scored the opener in the 3-1 victory over the Gills, as the Swans booked their place in the second round.

The 23-year-old cut into the area before curling a low effort into the bottom corner for his fourth goal for the Swans, but his first in SA1.

And, after a hamstring injury disrupted his pre-season, he is delighted to be back to fitness and contributing.

“This win gives us a lot of confidence and we will now go into Saturday’s game against Preston with confidence,” he said. 

“We want to show the fans that we can go for another win on Saturday and I'm really happy to be scoring my first goal. 

“Unfortunately I got injured in pre-season and I was very disappointed with that. 

“I had been feeling very confident and I was training well. Now I have recovered and I'm back on the field. 

“I'm happy and I'm very hungry for more and more, I’m feeling confident on the field and I just have to thank them for backing us and helping the team.”
