" Cardiff City today announced "

Admired full-back swaps Rams for the Premier League

Cardiff City is pleased to announce that John Brayford has signed for the Club from Derby County following the completion of his medical and paperwork.

The highly-rated defender has signed a four year deal at Cardiff City Stadium and will link up with his new team-mates ahead of City's pre-season fixture at Cheltenham Town on Saturday.

Twenty-five-year old right-back John made 117 appearances in total for the Rams following his move to Pride Park in May 2010. An ever present in Nigel Clough’s side, he notched up 43 appearances in all competitions for County last season, scoring three goals in the process.

Speaking exclusively to Cardiff City Player on Friday afternoon having completed his move, John said: "When I heard Cardiff were interested in signing me then I was obviously very interested, especially at the prospect of playing in the Premier League and testing myself at the highest level. Derby will always be a special Club to me, but this was an opportunity I couldn't ignore."




Simon Moore has completed his signing and will be announced very soon. :ayatollah:

That makes it 3 New signings so far. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Great signing. All the talk over the last few months of strikers, wingers, midfielders.....cornelius was exactly what we needed but the defence was where we had to have a couple of signings.

Fitzalan was the hardest school in Cardiff in the 70s, pushed a bit by Willows and Bishop Hannan - I wasn't there mate, I was in the posh school in Llandaff with all the Church-going Docks boys, but in the 70s discipline was, shall we say, a little different to today! We once dumped an irritating little shit from our school in your yard one lunchtime in 1979 - never irritated us again.

It's just not the hair style that's screaming "pick on me" - look at the colour!!

Cardiff have agreed a deal to sign keeper Simon Moore from Brentford.

City manager Malky Mackay has been an admirer of the 23-year-old for some time and believes Moore, who joined the Bees in 2009, has a big future.

"It'll be paperwork first thing Monday morning, that's the only thing holding that one up," Mackay told the Hounslow Chronicle.

"I'm glad to get that one in, he's someone we've tracked for a year and he's had a successful year for Brentford.

"He's one that I think is a real prospect. For the future of the club, I've got three really good goalkeepers now; Simon comes in and I think he can kick on again.

"My thanks to Brentford for the way they went about their business, they were very professional and it was done very quickly."
