" CARDIFF CITY MIDFIELDER LEAVES ON LOAN "

Cardiff City Football Club can confirm that midfielder Tommy O'Sullivan has rejoined Newport County on loan until Saturday, 7th May 2016.

O'Sullivan made 13 appearances for the Exiles during a previous loan spell earlier in the campaign, scoring once. He will be eligible to play in 12 further matches, with his temporary spell concluding after County's final day match with AFC Wimbledon.

We'd like to wish Tommy and Newport County all the very best for the remainder of the 2015/16 season.

WALES under-21s star Tommy O’Sullivan is back at Newport County AFC after agreeing to a new loan move from Cardiff City until the end of the season.

The 21-year-old midfielder initially moved from the Bluebirds to the Exiles in October when then manager John Sheridan signed him and defender Jazzi Barnum-Bobb.

Both impressed at Rodney Parade but were surprisingly allowed to return to the Cardiff City Stadium in early January.

In his first spell O’Sullivan made 14 appearances, scoring once – in the 4-1 win at Bristol Rovers in October.


New Exiles boss Warren Feeney is a big fan of the Welsh young player of the year for 2015 and happy to have him back on board.

“Tommy is an exciting player,” said Feeney. “He’s another midfielder and he can create things.

“He can add another dimension to us and he knows the place and I think for the final games it’s down to Tommy [to impress].

“He wants to play football. I watched him the other day for Cardiff [development side] and for me he was the best player on the pitch.

“You could see he was above the 21s and I’m looking forward to him coming in.

“Tommy’s got that wee bit of intelligence as well where you can play him off the [striker] in that advanced position,” he added.

“I thought he did very well here and so did John Sheridan and I know Tommy wanted to stay.

“He’s a very clever footballer and he gives us that wee bit of creativity – he can make things happen and it’s another option for me.”

After training with the squad this morning, O’Sullivan will be eligible to play in Saturday's League Two fixture at Portsmouth.

And Feeney says he is still on the lookout for more potential new arrivals ahead of the emergency loan window closing on March 24.

“Right up until the window closes I will be looking for players to come in,” he said.

Good for Tommy. No doubt he'll become a great player.
