Swansea City and Wales defender Jazz Richards is joining Huddersfield Town on loan.

The full-back revealed the news on his personal Twitter account today.

Richards is behind the likes of Angel Rangel and Dwight Tiendalli in the Swans pecking order and has made just one appearance against Malmo in the Europa League this season.

Richards enjoyed a successful loan spell at Crystal Palace at the end of last season, helping Ian Holloway's men win the Championship play-offs.

The 22-year-old is yet to make a Premier League appearance under Michael Laudrup but the Dane did seem to suggest he could be part of his plans during the summer.

However, Richards today tweeted: "Loan deal done to htafcdotcom looking forward to the next few months!".

Neither club has confirmed the deal and the exact length of the loan is not yet known.
