Ricketts has been arguably Jackett's greatest signing for the South Wales club - joining from non-league AFC Telford last summer on a free transfer. Now after a whirlwind of a season that has seen Ricketts blast onto the International scene with Wales, the fans' favourite could be set to complete a fantastic year and join the Premiership.
The club are currently in talks with the Welsh International over a new two year contract extension, although negotiations are taking longer than expected. Any deal would depend upon the two clubs agreeing a fee, which could prove to be quite substantial due to Swansea's hopes of keeping hold of the player.
