16 year old Penglais School pupil Alex Samuel is set to sign for Swansea City having been offered a two-year scholarship by the Premier League club.
A product of the Aberystwyth Academy, Alex has impressed during the season for the Aberystwyth Town reserves and first team and his performances on the international stage for the Wales Under 18 schoolboys has generated interest from a number of clubs.
“It’s a dream come true for Alex not only because he is moving to a Premier League club but he’s moving to the club he supports and I feel sure he’ll do well there.”
Alex and his family were guests of Swansea City at their last match of the season against Liverpool at the Liberty stadium when another Academy product Gwion Edwards was on the bench for Swansea hoping to make his Premier League debut.
The club will be sorry to see Alex move on but at least there is the promise of a pre-season friendly with a Swansea City XI.
ATFC LIONS CELEBRATE BEST SEASON SO FAR
Updated 21 May : 20:13 by admin
Aberystwyth Town's student team, the ATFC Lions, have celebrated their best ever season in the University's Digs' League under the leadership of Kristian Jones.
A series of strong league performances towards the end of the season saw the Lions finish 3rd in the Premier League and qualify for the Shield play-offs for the first time in their history. The run included some impressive results, including a 1-1 draw to PremStars who went on to complete the treble. Moreover, the Lions we're the only team to earn a draw against the PremStars in any competition this season.
This result was the first in a series of strong performances in the last few games of the season, with an 8-3 win over Eindhoven FC and a 6-2 victory over Aber Kadabra ensuring 3rd place. Unfortunately the Lions we're edged out of the shield playoffs by FC LMA, despite a hard fought display. Nonetheless, the ATFC Lions can be proud of the improvement they have shown throughout the season. This very trait was recognized by the league itself, as the ATFC Lions picked up the award for the Most Improved Team at the League Awards.
At the ATFC Lions' End of Season Awards, players old and new paid tribute to manager Kristian 'Bungle' Jones who has stepped down after two years leading the side. His effort for the Lions in the past few season's as a player and a manager have been unparalleled, and he will be missed by
everyone at the ATFC Lions. Everyone at ATFC thanks Kristian for his service to the club and wishes him all the best for the future.
The evening saw several players pick up awards, with captain Steve Matthews taking both the top goalscorer and goal of the season awards, Phil Southern winning Player's Player, Chris Hefferan claiming Manager's Player, Gareth Selway winning Captains' Player, George Forgrave winning
Most Improved, Joe Scott claiming unsung hero, Jamie Dillon taking Best Newcomer and Danny Emmison winning Clubman of the Year for his outstanding service to the team.
