Updated: “ First Signing finally done “

Updated:

Ryotaro Tsunoda is 25 yrs old in a few months and played 20
matches in his professional career in Japan and has been sent straight out on loan.




Although we’d heard about it recently and Erol even mentioned it himself, Tsunoda is the first to join the club. Albeit going straight out to Tans Belgium Club rock bottom of their league.




CARDIFF CITY FC:


Cardiff City FC can confirm that Ryotaro Tsunoda has joined from J1 League side, Yokohama F. Marinos. Ryotaro will immediately join KV Kortrijk on loan until the end of the 2023/24 season to gain experience of football in Europe.

Twenty-four-year-old Ryotaro can play at centre half and left full back. Having signed professional terms with Yokohama in the summer of 2021, he made 16 First Team appearances in the Japanese top flight during the 2023 season and has represented his country at U18 and U20 levels.

Wait till he gets his 5 to 6 players in the next 9 days he wants and has wanted for months before the window opened

That’s definitely going to sort out our defensive issues.

Can’t see the purpose of this signing. He is 24 years old and we are sending him to Vinnie’s bottom of the table Belgian team. How can this recruit benefit the City?

Spot on:

For me this is 100% Def not a Signing for Cardiff City.

He’s 24 and hardly ever played a professional match.

22/01/2024: Scottish Championship Club Dundee United Asked Cardiff to take back Ollie Denham as they were not going to play him in their first team and after 5 months they only gave him 43mins of football and that was in the Scottish Cup.



15/01/2024: As widely reported Ryotaro Tsunoda has joined Cardiff City on a permanent deal and so registered as a Cardiff player, but will go straight out on loan to Vincent Tans Belgium Club KV Kortrijk who are Absolutely Rock Bottom and Tans needs to some how save the club from relegation as the valuation will drop.

If he had a track record of games and was needed for work permit issues, then fine.

But only 16 games at that age??? Bet Tan signed this one!

Not interested in players tan is signing to play in belgium or are we to assume that this is 1 of buluts 6 5 left unless Denham that came back from scotland is another gillette soccer transfer show will not be able to keep up.

Not sure where this 16 games figure has come from. He’s played over 50 games, and I’m sure someone mentioned the university set up out in Japan is where players begin usually.

You are correct, I withdraw my statement.

Now I don’t really see the major fuss.

We can still sign players for our first team and get a player like this who could be someone we use in the summer. He was called to Japan’s international squad but injury blocked the chance of a cap.

Just because he’s 24, turning 25 doesn’t mean he can’t be promising.

May seem strange signing but next season going to need at least another 6 players on top of the 5 we want this window ! Could call it planning ahead?

The headline is click bait, we all get pissed off with the papers doing that without our own supporters doing it FFS.

The headline was actually done by the poster and media on Twitter not the Mods or me.

The January transfer window should be renamed the 1st February transfer window, as along with many other clubs, there is little or no movement into Cardiff City until the final day. The lad from Japan doesn't count!

Think I'll toddle off for the next 9 days or so and return on the deadline day full of hope, but prepared for disappointment.

Just go back to transfer whenever and get rid of these stupid windows.

Welcome and

An uninspiring one. We're still no stronger post this signing.
