Swansea City and Jamal Lowe are set to reconnect on Tuesday, with Luke Williams indicating that “most” clubs in the Championship would be pleased to have the forward on their team.
Last season, Lowe was a joint top scorer for Swansea, finding the net nine times in 35 appearances, including 24 starts, after returning to the club on loan from Bournemouth.
After becoming a free agent over the summer, Williams had previously hinted in April that Swansea might consider offering the Jamaica international a permanent contract.
Lowe, who celebrated his 30th birthday in July, ultimately signed with Sheffield Wednesday on a free transfer.
Williams expressed his willingness to have retained the former Wigan and Portsmouth player, stating, “I think most Championship squads would be very pleased to have Jamal Lowe.”
“However, you can’t have everything, and we are content with our current squad. We’re also really glad that Jamal has found a club where he can play regular football.
“Not everything is perfect in life, but I think, in the end, it was a good solution for both sides.
”So far this season, Lowe has scored twice in nine appearances for the Owls, with his only league goal coming on the opening weekend.
“He is a very gifted player, we know that,” Williams added. “He is very creative, possesses good physicality, and can be difficult to handle. But we also have several players in our squad who have experience playing with him, so hopefully, that gives us a better chance to cope with him.
“We look forward to seeing him because he is a great guy, but we hope he has a quiet game.”
Football icon Cristiano Ronaldo received a remarkable tribute in New York City’s Times Square, where a 12-foot bronze statue was unveiled in celebration of his 40th birthday.
The sculpture, designed by renowned artist Sergio Furnari, was revealed to a crowd of fans waving Portuguese flags and chanting Ronaldo’s signature "Siu" celebration.
The statue, adorned in green, red, and gold, symbolises Ronaldo’s immense impact on football and his lasting global legacy.
Speaking about the tribute, Furnari said, “Cristiano Ronaldo represents perseverance, excellence, and the unbreakable spirit of a champion. This statue is a tribute to everything he has achieved in his extraordinary career.”
Ronaldo, currently playing for Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League, remains one of the most recognisable figures in world football.
The unveiling of his statue in one of the most famous locations in the world underscores his influence beyond the sport, solidifying his status as a global cultural icon.
Fans in attendance expressed their admiration, with one stating, “Ronaldo is more than a footballer—he is an inspiration to millions around the world. Seeing him honored in Times Square is truly special.”
As he continues his career, Ronaldo’s legacy remains firmly intact, with his achievements celebrated on and off the pitch.
