I've been searching all over the internet and finally I've found a solution from a post on StackOverFlow check it out here.

For Swift 4 You can add this UIButton extension and it will work fine.

extension UIButton {

    override open func touchesBegan(_ touches: Set, with event: UIEvent?) {
        isHighlighted = true
        super.touchesBegan(touches, with: event)
    }

    override open func touchesEnded(_ touches: Set, with event: UIEvent?) {
        isHighlighted = false
        super.touchesEnded(touches, with: event)
    }

    override open func touchesCancelled(_ touches: Set, with event: UIEvent?) {
        isHighlighted = false
        super.touchesCancelled(touches, with: event)
    }

}
