City in Portugal | S.C. Braga up first | Cardiff

Cardiff City underwent another managerial change in the summer, after another near-miss with relegation.

Sabri Lamouchi steered Cardiff City to Championship safety in the end. Many expected him to stay on for this 2023/24 campaign but he left, and was eventually replaced by Turkish coach Erol Bulut.

His side have had a mixed start to the season with some good and some bad performances, with the Bluebirds having just one league win to their name so far.

It comes after another minor exodus of players in the summer, with several first-team players leaving along with a number of youth players.

Here we look at where the 12 players who left Cardiff City last season are at now…

Dillon Phillips never really kicked on at Cardiff City despite proving himself to be a very worthy Championship goalkeeper. Soon after his release, he was signed by Rotherham United.

Tom Sang

Former Manchester United youngster Tom Sang is another who perhaps didn’t fulfil his potential with Cardiff City; he’s now playing in League One for Port Vale.

Gavin Whyte

Northern Ireland international Gavin Whyte was a good servant for Cardiff City. But the time came for him to move on and he’s another who ended up in League One, having signed for Portsmouth.

Connor Wickham

Experienced striker Connor Wickham remains a free agent following his Cardiff release at the end of last season.
