Sat Jan 16, 2021 2:31 pm

Cardiff City Football Club are delighted to announce the signing of forward Max Watters.

The 21-year-old joins from Crawley Town and has signed a contract with the Bluebirds until the summer of 2024.

Watters has been one of the EFL's most prolific strikers during the 2020/21 campaign, netting 13 goals in just 15 league matches.

After putting pen to paper at Cardiff City Stadium, Max said: "When I first found out about Cardiff's interest I was immediately attracted to it. Wales is a lovely place to live, so it came down to that really.

"As a striker, you've got to score goals, and that's what I'm here to do.

"It's a big game at home against QPR in midweek. It's a shame that fans can't be here so I can play in front of them. Hopefully I'm involved and hopefully we can get the win."




£200,000 plus add in could make £500,000 with goals , promotion and appearances.

Time to call it a day on the current manager. How many times do we concide within 7 minutes? Enough is enough. Mr Tan protect your investment. Go get someone that can make these players win for you. They are capable..... :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluebird: :bluebird:

Cardiff City have made their first signing of the January transfer window with the capture of striker Max Watters from Crawley Town.

South Wales rivals Swansea City had long held an interest in signing the 21-year-old, however it is understood they were unwilling to meet Crawley's asking price.

However, the Bluebirds have now swooped in a deal which could potentially be worth up to £1m if a succession of add-on clauses are fulfilled.

Neil Harris had been keen on adding a striker to the ranks in this window, with right back and centre back other areas in which he would like to bolster, and has succeeded with the addition of Watters.

Welcome :bluescarf:

Intersting read from Doncaster forum

Its hard to judge what we have signed in Watters . Is he a bargain or a flash in the pan striker ?

Less than 8 months ago he was stuck in Doncaster development being loaned out to lower teams .

Sounds a bit like Rhys Healey for us when he was here
