Swansea City nears permanent appointment of Alan Sheehan as head coach

Swansea City are in advanced talks to appoint Alan Sheehan as their permanent head coach following his successful interim spell since February. Sheehan has led the team to an impressive turnaround, securing 23 points from 11 games and steering the club away from relegation concerns in the Championship. The club aims to finalize a long-term deal with Sheehan before their final match of the season, reflecting both management and fan support for his appointment. Sheehan initially joined Swansea as assistant head coach in 2023 and has previously served as caretaker manager after other departures. His leadership has been credited with revitalizing the squad, and with new investment, Swansea hopes to build on this momentum. The club is optimistic a positive outcome will be reached imminently.
