Ryan Hedges (born 8 July 1995) is a Welsh professional footballer who plays for Stevenage on loan from Swansea City.

Early life

Hedges attended Hawarden High School in Hawarden, Flintshire, North Wales.[2] Michael Owen, Andy Dorman and Gary Speed are fellow ex-pupils from the school who became professional footballers.

Club career

Hedges joined Swansea City from Flint Town in the summer of 2013 following some impressive performances for the Welsh Schools Under-18s team.[3] Hedges linked up with the Swansea City Under-21 team in the 2013–14 season, and was rewarded for his progress with a new one-year contract until June 2014.[4]

On 16 January 2015, Hedges joined League One team Leyton Orient on a one-month loan deal.[5] He made his professional debut for Leyton Orient against Colchester United on 24 January 2014.[6] After an impressive start, Hedges' loan was extended until the end of the 2014–15 season.[7] Hedges scored his first professional goal for Leyton Orient, and then set up a goal for Chris Dagnall, in a 2–0 win over Walsall on 28 February 2015.[8] Weeks later on 14 March 2015, Hedges scored his second goal for Leyton Orient in a 3–0 win over Yeovil Town.[9] Hedges went on to make seventeen appearances, scoring twice, as Orient were relegated to League Two.

In June 2015, Hedges signed a three-year contract extension at Swansea.[10][11]

In February 2016, Hedges joined Stevenage on a one-month emergency loan.

International career

Prior to joining Swansea City, Hedges scored twice and claimed an assist as captain of the Welsh Schools Under-18s team in a 4–1 win over England.[2] Hedges has represented Wales at under-19 and under-21 level.[12]
