<\/u>Defender Sam Ricketts was signed by Kenny Jackett on a free from Telford in 2003, he can play at right or left back and he impressed during his first season with the Swans. <\/p>\n

John Toshack called up Ricketts to the Welsh squad and made his debut for Wales against Hungary in 2005, he has since played 10 times for Wales and has adapted to International football very well. <\/p>\n

Last season Ricketts struggled at club level at times, but did look better going forward and managed to get on the score sheet a couple of times too. He will be hoping for better performances this coming season.<\/p>\n
