Youth career

George Swan joined Wolves in September 2014, a few days before his twentieth birthday. He is the son of Peter Swan, who played for Leeds United, Hull City and Port Vale, also mainly as a central defender but sometimes as a forward. Wolves were rumoured to be after the father in the early sixties; now they're trying the son.

Manchester City rated George Swan highly but a string of bad injuries (a cruciate knee ligament operation, a lateral knee ligament operation, a broken leg and an impingement in his hip) wrecked his career before it had started. Wolves' new U21 coach Scott Sellars recommended him and so he was offered a short contract to make his case for something more permanent. He is an ever-present so far this season, starting every game apart from the U21 PLC match v Villa, where he came on as a sub.
