Peart-Harris' Swans spell looks over due to injury

Myles Peart-Harris is under contract at Brentford until 2026

Alan Sheehan fears Myles Peart-Harris has played his final game for Swansea City because of a back injury.

Peart-Harris, who is on loan for the season from Brentford, was forced off in the first half of Swansea's goalless draw at Preston North End in midweek.

The Swans had initially hoped the injury was only minor, but the 22-year-old has now returned to parent club with Sheehan saying he will be out for "a good while".

"I don't think it's good," Swansea's caretaker boss said.

"He is going to back to Brentford and will get assessed again, but the scans weren't as generous to us as we'd have hoped.

"It's such a pity because he's such a lovely kid and he gives us something very different than other people in the team.

"I am very disappointed for him. He is a young lad, he has come here and had a good loan so for it to end like that is disappointing."

Peart-Harris was signed as an attacking midfielder, but has spent most of his time at Swansea on the wing.

He has scored three goals in 30 Swansea appearances, 18 of which were Championship starts.

Eom Ji-Sung replaced Peart-Harris in Sheehan's starting side as they hosted Middlesbrough on Saturday, and scored his first goal of the season to secure three points for his team.

Swansea, meanwhile, are hopeful that Harry Darling does not have a serious injury despite the fact that he came off in the second half of the Middlesbrough win with a hip issue.
