Pre-season

edit

Managerial change

edit

Head coach Steve Cooper left the club by mutual consent during pre-season, on 21 July 2021.[1] He was replaced by Russell Martin on 1 August, six days before Swansea's first game of the season.[2]

Friendlies

edit

The Swans announced they would have friendlies against Swindon Town,[3] Plymouth Argyle,[4] Bristol Rovers,[5] and Forest Green Rovers[6] and Southampton[7] as part of the club's pre-season preparations. However, the friendly against Swindon was cancelled due to "ongoing logistical and operational issues" at Swindon.[8] The friendly against Bristol Rovers was also cancelled due to positive Coronavirus cases within Swansea's first-team bubble.[9]
