New Cardiff City signing Jak Alnwick has credited the influence of his older brother in helping to kickstart his career.

The former St.Mirren keeper recently completed a move to the capital following the recent departure of previous number one Alex Smithies, the latest step in a career that's previously taken him to eight clubs.

His brother Ben also started his career in their native north-east, running out for Sunderland, before later enjoying spells at Tottenham, Luton, Norwich and, most recently, Bolton Wanderers among others.

And it's clear his career has had a big influence on his younger brother, who's itching to get started for the Bluebirds next term. However, it's Manchester City's current number one that's now his biggest source of inspiration.

"My biggest influence has been my brother," he told Cardiff's official website. "Obviously he's older than me and I used to see him playing a lot for Sunderland when I was a young kid and that influenced into being a goalkeeper.

"At the time, my footballing hero was [Peter] Schmeichel, but now I look up at Ederson."
