What happened. Swansea City have signed free agent Ross Stewart on a three-year deal after his departure from Southampton.

• Stewart left Southampton in June after failing to agree a new contract.
• The 30-year-old scored 11 goals in 33 games for Southampton last season.
• He was part of Scotland's squad at this summer's World Cup.

“In our conversations he has made clear his hunger and desire to be an important senior figure and leader in our dressing room.”

— Vitor Matos
