Inverness Caledonian Thistle FC are delighted to announce the signing of striker Morgan Bates on loan from Swansea City until the end of the season, subject to Scottish FA and international clearance.

Bates, 19, joined Swansea City’s Academy from Briton Ferry Llansawel and signed a scholarship with the club in September 2024.

The Welsh striker scored 22 goals across Swansea’s Under-18 and Under-21 sides during the 2024–25 season, earning a new contract with the club. Last season, he featured prominently for Swansea’s Under-21 side, finishing as their top scorer with 23 goals.

Upon joining Caley Thistle, Morgan said:

“It’s amazing. This move has been on my mind for a while. When my agent told me about the opportunity, I immediately felt this was the club I wanted to join.

“It was my goal to gain first-team experience this season, and the attraction of coming here was the way the team plays, the club itself, and the area. Everything has come together really well.”
