Breaking Unbelievable News Now: Swansea City’s former head coach and two players have announced their return to the team.

Amazing Breaking News Two players and the previous head coach of Swansea City have now declared their comeback to the group.

Williams takes over for Michael Duff, who was fired on December 4 by the championship team. Williams, who worked for Swansea under Russell Martin in the 2021–2022 campaign, is back at the club.

With his departure, the 43-year-old leaves Notts County in fifth place in League Two.

Swansea chairman Andy Coleman stated, “As I have said previously, we have undertaken a diligent and detailed process to find our next head coach.”

I’ve had the good fortune to hang out with Luke a lot lately. After giving him a serious look, I am certain that Luke will be a capable coach and leader who shares our goals for Swansea City.

“He is exactly the kind of young manager that has thrived here—talented and ambitious. I’m sure the Swansea City fans will be thrilled and proud of this Luke Williams-led squad.”

Ryan Harley, Williams’ assistant, returns from Meadow Lane to South Wales after a brief stint at Swansea during his playing career.

George Lawtey, a coach analyst for Notts County’s first team, is also moving to Swansea in the same capacity.

Swansea and Notts County have reached an agreement on a compensation package to guarantee the trio’s services.

Alan Sheehan, who took over as interim head coach after Duff left, will now work with Williams and Harley. Sheehan will resume his post as senior assistant coach.

Luke Williams last season at Notts County on the touchline
The Notts County team led by Luke Williams set multiple club records in the previous campaign, including the most wins, goals scored, and points totaled.
Goalkeeping coach Martyn Margetson and fellow assistant coach Kristian O’Leary will also stay with the team.

born in London In his only full season in charge, Williams guided Notts County to promotion from the National League; the Magpies emerged victorious in the play-offs after a thrilling title struggle against Wrexham.

Williams is said to be a top-notch coach who, more importantly, is dedicated to playing the kind of possession-based football Swansea is eager to bring back after being chastised for their play during Duff’s short tenure.

Less than six months after Martin’s replacement was announced, Duff—who only managed five victories in his 19 league games at Swansea—was fired.

After that, Sheehan took command of the situation and won 11 points in seven games.

In the summer of 2022, Williams assumed leadership at Notts County, and in January 2023, he inked a new deal with the team.

After suffering an injury as a young player that destroyed his dreams of playing professionally, Williams worked as a driver and in a warehouse before taking up coaching at Leyton Orient and later West Ham.

His big coaching break came under Gus Poyet’s direction as Brighton’s under-21 manager. He then moved into senior coaching at Swindon Town, where he finished his managerial career in 2017 after being demoted to League Two.

After that, Williams worked as an under-23 coach for Bristol City before joining Martin at MK Dons and Swansea.

Luke Williams: The new head coach of Swansea remembers his first trip to Swansea.com Stadium
He left Swansea in February 2022, citing personal reasons, and then joined Notts County to resume playing football.

Swansea had always considered Williams as a possible Duff replacement, even though their first choice at the time was Chris Davies, the senior assistant coach at Tottenham Hotspur.

However, Davies chose to remain at Spurs after appearing to be close to taking over at Swansea.

This forced the Swans to reevaluate their alternatives, which helps to explain why the club’s search for a new manager has taken 32 days.

Swansea sporting director Paul Watson stated, “We know Luke can coach the style of play we want, in part because he was an integral part of delivering it here in training sessions when he was an assistant.”

Luke’s abilities are also supported by the information and outcomes. He perfectly complements Swansea City and our goals.”

Swansea, who defeated West Bromwich Albion 1-0 on New Year’s Day, are currently eight points outside of the top six in the Championship, sitting in 16th place.

The FA Cup third-round match at home against Morecambe, whom Williams’ Notts County team thrashed 5-0 in League Two last week, will be Williams’ first game in charge.

He departs from the Midlands club, which is currently seven points behind the fourth-tier automatic promotion berth.
