2022/23 Squad Numbers | Cardiff

The 5 Cardiff City players likely to exit from June onwards

A number of players could leave Cardiff City in the summer, as boss Erol Bulut needs to make some changes at the Cardiff City Stadium.
With many struggling to perform this season for Cardiff City, there could be a number of players leaving the club from June onwards.
Despite an early season push for a place in the play-offs, the Bluebirds soon slumped to a string of poor results in the Championship, quickly dropping down the table.

They currently sit 14th in the league table and are closer to the relegation zone than they are to Hull City in sixth place. It looks unlikely that Cardiff will be drawn into a relegation battle, although anything is possible if their poor form continues.

Kion Etete Cardiff

With another disappointing season coming to a close in the summer, there will likely be a number of players leaving the club. Whether they are at the end of their contracts or simply not playing well enough, there will need to be some changes in the squad if they ever hope to make it to the Premier League again.

The Bluebirds have struggled to find a consistent striker since Kieffer Moore left the club in 2022, with Kion Etete the latest to fail to fill the void left by the Wales international.

The forward has spent the last two seasons with Cardiff, scoring just five times in 54 appearances for the club. This is a disastrous record for a striker, and could be the reason why he is let go in the summer.

A new striker should be the club’s number one priority in the summer, with Etete likely to make way due to his poor goal scoring record at the Cardiff City Stadium.

Joe Ralls

Joe Ralls has been one of the most important players in the Cardiff squad for years, but could exit the club at the end of the current season when his contract expires.

However, boss Erol Bulut has urged his side to keep a hold of their captain, who has played over 350 league matches for the Bluesbirds since making his debut for the club in 2011.

Despite his pleas, if the owners do not offer the player a new deal, then Ralls will exit the club in the summer. His leadership and expierence over the past decade of playing for Cardiff would be impossible to replace, so it would be in the team’s best interest if Ralls was given a new deal.
