We are delighted to welcome Will Fish to Cardiff City Football Club.
The central defender joins from Manchester United for an undisclosed fee, subject to international clearance.
The 21-year-old has signed a four-year contract with the Bluebirds, lasting until the summer of 2028.
Will came through the ranks at Old Trafford and made his First Team debut for the Red Devils in May 2021.
Since then, the defender has gained experience on loan at Stockport County and Hibernian, making 66 appearances for the latter across two seasons.
Speaking about his move to the Welsh capital, Will said: “I’m delighted. It took a while to get it over the line, but now I’m here, I can’t wait to get going and embrace it.
"It’s a huge club. The direction that the Club want to go in, you’ve seen a lot of good signings in this window. Being a part of that is really exciting and I’m happy to be here. Hopefully, I can do my best for the team.
"I’ve spoken to people that have played here in the past and they only said good things. I’ve heard amazing things about the fans. I spoke to David Marshall, who was here and the fans love him. That just shows that if you do well, they’ll back you forever. I just can’t wait to step out on the pitch.
“Marshy has played the game for a long time. I dropped him a text and the first thing he said was what an amazing football club it is. Marshy, when you speak to him, you know that what he tells you is right, so I have full belief that I’m making the right decision.”
After adding his seventh signing of the window, City boss Erol Bulut said: “He is a young defender, who has been at Manchester United for many years, so has had a good education from them.
"For the last two years he was in Hibernian, so we watched him and we were interested in him in January too.
“We hope that he will progress with us in a good way. He is still 21 years old, just starting his career and he is good on the ball, good in duels, so he will add to our playing style.
"Of course, he has to push to be in the team. He is not quite ready to play yet, so he will be with us after the international break and hopefully he can add positive things to our game.”
Welcome to the Welsh capital, Will!
