Swansea City have emerged as surprise promotion contenders this season, as they look to make a timely return to the Premier League this season. 

The club have released their third kit for this year's campaign, which celebrates their 50-year anniversary as Swansea City, after formerly being Swansea Town.

Steve Cooper's side have been hugely impressive so far this season and currently sit top of the Championship table during the international break.

The Swans beat Leeds United last weekend to send out a real statement of intent to the rest of their promotion rivals this term.

Cooper's men are next in action on 14th September, when they take on Nottingham Forest in what could be a potentially tricky test for the league-leaders.

Plenty of Swansea fans took to social media to issue their thoughts on the third kit.
