Swansea City have announced the signing of defender Joel Ward until the end of the 2025/26 season.
The 36-year-old has been without a club since leaving Crystal Palace in the summer after 13 seasons at Selhurst Park.

Ward made just three appearances for Palace last season with his final game for the club coming the 4-2 win over Wolves in May.
In total the defender played 363 games for the Eagles and Swansea will be hoping to benefit from Ward's vast experience.
The Swans are currently 17th in the Championship, eight points off the drop zone and nine points below the play-off spots. Vítor Matos' side are in action on Sunday when they host West Bromwich Albion in the FA Cup.
