Bristol City defender Hordur Magnusson has completed a move to CSKA Moscow for an undisclosed fee.

The 25-year-old, who played for Iceland in their recent 1-1 draw with Argentina at the World Cup, joined Bristol City from Juventus in 2016.

"I would like to thank Hordur for everything he has done at the football club," said Robins head coach Lee Johnson.

“I wish him all the best at CSKA Moscow, it’s a good opportunity for him as they are a club due to perform in the Champions League so it’s a step up in that regard, and I wish him well for the rest of the World Cup"
