Vitor Matos has signed a new four-year contract at Swansea City until June 2030.
Matos took charge of the Swans in November 2025 and led them to a 11th-placed Championship finish last season, albeit on a contract which was set to expire in June 2029.
The 38-year-old manager and Swansea however have agreed new terms on a fresh contract, which will now run for an additional year until June 2030.
“From the moment I arrived here, I have sensed how powerful the connection between Swansea City and the fans and community is,” commented Matos following confirmation of his new contract as he reflected on the bond between the club and fans plus their progress.
“This is something very special, it is a feeling myself and the players love, and the desire to keep building that and sharing great moments together is one of the key motivations in extending my contract with the club.
“We put good foundations in place last season, but now we have to look forward, we have to keep pushing and making progress.
“We have enjoyed a positive pre-season, and made good additions to our squad, and I am looking forward to the season ahead and beyond.”
Swansea’s Chief Executive, Tom Gorringe added that Matos has made an exciting impact and iterated that the new contract is a reflection of his efforts in eight months and future potential.
“Vitor made a considerable impact following his appointment in November of last year and we are excited about the direction in which he is taking Swansea City.
“This new deal is a reflection of our belief in the work he and his team have done since joining us, and what we believe we can accomplish together under Vitor’s stewardship.
“The importance of stability and consistency of vision on and off the pitch cannot be overestimated, and we are delighted to have reached an agreement to extend his stay with us at an exciting time for the football club.”
