Northern Ireland star backed to kick on at Championship club after marking his home debut with stunning strike
Galbraith stepped up to the Championship when he joined the Swans over the summer from Leyton Orient, who were defeated 1-0 by Charlton Athletic in the League One Play-Off Final. Although the Welsh outfit lost their 2025/26 League opener 1-0 away to Middlesbrough, with Galbraith playing 63 minutes at the Riverside Stadium, it was a happier tale for the former Manchester United Academy player at home against Crawley Town in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday night. With Brazilian winger Ronald and Bobby Wales having already hit the net in the First Round tie, Galbraith struck a long-range piledriver in second-half stoppage-time that picked out the bottom left corner and ensured Swansea's progression with a 3-1 victory over their League Two opponents. Sheehan believes 24-year-old Glengormley native Galbraith's display at the Stadium could be a sign of things to come. 'He is a player we are integrating,' he said. 'He has good technical ability. We just need to get that level of consistency and he can be a very good player for us.' Former Linfield youth player Galbraith will look to pick up his first League win with his new side when Swansea entertain Sheffield United on Saturday afternoon. Making his Northern Ireland debut as a teenager in 2019, he has seven senior caps to his name having risen to particular prominence under Michael O'Neill over the past year. Swans boss Sheehan added: 'It's important to win, no matter what competition it is. 'Obviously, the League is the most important thing. We would have liked a point (at Middlesbrough), I think it was a 0-0 game. 'I think it was really good response by the players.'
