Kelvin Etuhu, a second half substitute in the win at Barcelona in midweek, has joined Cardiff on a season-long loan.

The 20-year-old right sided midfielder who has made four starts, eleven substitute appearances and has a single goal, against Bolton, next to his name at City, is expected to go straight into the Championship side’s squad for tomorrow’s game against Bristol City.

High flying Cardiff were just one of the suitors for Etuhu who like fellow Academy graduate Shaleum Logan (Tranmere Rovers) signed a one-year contract extension before heading off to hone his skills.
