Cardiff City Football Club are delighted to announce the signing of Ryan Wintle, subject to international clearance.
The midfielder joins on a free transfer from Crewe Alexandra and has agreed a three-year deal with the Bluebirds.
24-year-old Wintle was with the Railwaymen from 2015, making his professional debut at the age of 18. He went on to make 186 appearances in all competitions across six seasons at Gresty Road.
"I'm buzzing that it's sorted and I'm so happy to be here," Ryan told Cardiff City TV.
"I'm all-action, I'd say. I get forward, I get back and hopefully I'll try and be a fans' favourite and do everything that they want from me.
"I spoke to [Perry Ng] as soon as I found out about the interest and he had a very high regard for this place.
"When we didn't have a game I watched Cardiff because I was watching Perry. Now I'm here as a player so hopefully we can win games together!
"I then came down, spoke to the Manager, was very happy with what I heard and I couldn't wait to join.
"I'm one of those players that will wear their heart on their sleeve and hopefully I can repay the faith that he's placed in me."
Welcome to Cardiff City Stadium, Ryan!
