Mykola Kuharevich convinced Hibs stint prepared him for Swansea move

Mykola Kuharevich is convinced his loan stint at Hibernian has prepared him for life at Swansea City.

The Ukraine under-21 striker has penned an initial three-year deal with the English Championship side after spending last season at Hibs on loan from French club Troyes.

The 22-year-old, who scored five goals in 10 starts during an injury-affected spell at Easter Road, recently left the door open for a return to the Leith club.

But he has instead set his sights on the English Premier League after joining former Hearts rival Josh Ginnelly at Swansea.

He said: “Every club gave me a lot. It was a really good experience to be in another county and another competition.

“I took, I think, a lot and it’s helping me now.

“I think British football suits me. There’s a physical side but also the fans are unbelievable.

“They always push you and give you energy and help you to show your best.

“[Swansea] is a big club, only five years ago they were in the Premier League. Football people know about this club so I’m happy to be here.

“For me, I just want to be successful here, do my best every day and help the team to reach our goals and, of course, as a striker, I want to score as much as I can.”
