"When he arrived in Wales, Montague was reunited with Luke Williams, who he had worked with successfully at Notts County. But with Swansea struggling for form, Williams lost his job as head coach just days after Montague's appointment was announced. Sheehan was then placed in caretaker charge, with Montague leading the search for Williams' long-term successor. Montague spoke to a number of potential candidates about the vacancy,"
"Swansea will now operate with Adam Worth, their global head of recruitment and analytics taking charge of the recruitment team and strategy, while CEO Tom Gorringe will oversee contract negotiations. Co-owners Brett Cravatt and Jason Cohen said: "This was not a decision taken lightly, and we are extremely grateful for Richard's work during a busy summer transfer window. "However, it is vital that everyone at the club is aligned with our shared strategy. We are confident in the team we have in place, both on and off the pitch, to continue driving the club forward.""
Richard Montague left Swansea City seven months after joining from Notts County following an internal review of football operations. The club decided to adopt a different approach ahead of the January transfer window and reassigned recruitment leadership to Adam Worth, with CEO Tom Gorringe overseeing contract negotiations. Co-owners expressed gratitude for Montague's summer work but emphasized the need for alignment with the club's shared strategy. Montague had been reunited with Luke Williams on arrival, led the search for a new head coach after Williams' dismissal, and took part in recruitment during a summer of heavy spending and 12 new signings.
