Swansea City head coach Luke Williams is feeling the pressure to secure new deals for defenders Ben Cabango and Harry Darling before their contracts expire next summer. Both players have been crucial to the team, with Darling revealing that there have been no discussions about extending their contracts.
Williams emphasized the need for urgency in addressing the situation, drawing on a recent game where the defensive duo displayed exceptional commitment and determination. He highlighted a moment where Cabango made a crucial goal-saving tackle, likening his performance to that of England legend Bobby Moore.
While informal talks have taken place between Darling and the club, Williams stressed that concrete offers have yet to be made. He expressed his desire to keep both players at the club, considering them essential members of the team.
Having previously worked with Darling at MK Dons, Williams has a strong appreciation for the defender’s abilities. He commended Cabango for his outstanding performance on the pitch, particularly highlighting his quick reflexes and precision in making important tackles.
As negotiations progress, Williams is hopeful that deals will be finalized soon to secure the futures of Cabango and Darling at Swansea City. The coach’s admiration for the players and their contributions to the team underscores the importance of reaching agreements promptly to avoid any potential loss in the upcoming season.
