Luke Williams says he expects on-loan Brighton goalkeeper Carl Rushworth to remain a Swansea City player next season.
Rushworth, 22, has been one of Swansea's top performers during his season-long stay at the Welsh club.
After Swansea's 2-1 win at Sunderland on Saturday, Williams indicated Rushworth will return in 2024-25.
"Rushy is incredible - I think he is going to be a top keeper," Swansea head coach Williams said.
"I think he is going to be with us next season of course, but after that he is going to go on and be a top Premier League keeper I am sure because of the quality he has but also the personality he has to go with it."
Rushworth has previously excelled during loan spells at Walsall and Lincoln City.
The England Under-21 international has impressed in a Swansea shirt despite their struggles in a turbulent campaign.
Rushworth has played in all 34 Swansea league games this season, as well as two EFL Cup ties.
As it stands, he is due to return to Brighton at the end of this campaign. He signed a new long-term deal with the Premier League club before moving to Swansea last summer.
Swansea's goalkeeping coach Martyn Margetson holds the same role with England's national team.
