OFFICIAL:


Cardiff City Football Club is delighted to confirm the arrival of Scottish international David Turnbull on a permanent deal from Celtic, subject to international clearance.

The midfielder joins the Bluebirds for an undisclosed fee, penning a contract until June 2027.

Turnbull began his career with Motherwell, scoring 16 goals in 34 appearances across all competitions during his breakthrough campaign in the Well’s First Team squad.

Joining Celtic in August 2020, the 24-year-old went on to make over 125 appearances for the Hoops, winning two Scottish Premiership titles, two Scottish Cups and two Scottish League Cups.

In total, Turnbull scored 31 goals and recorded 23 assists during his time at Celtic Park, and now arrives in South Wales for his first experience of Championship football.

After putting pen to paper at CCS, David said: “I’m delighted, I’m buzzing to be here. It’s been a long day or two, but I’m really glad to get it over the line and can’t wait to get started. When I heard of the interest, I was very keen. It’s a huge Club. I’ve watched them in past and want to be a part of it now and kick on.

“It’s a great city and when I arrived at the stadium, it was nice to see it. It’s brilliant and I’m really looking forward to it.”

Bluebirds boss Erol Bulut added: "I see a lot of quality. He is a good age, he played the last three seasons with Celtic, scored and assisted many goals. This is what we need in our midfield. He is creative in the offensive shape and he can finalise attacks.

“We now have good options and not the same styles. We have defensive midfielders and also have more creativity. In the second half, when we want to change, we can now change a few players and have the same level.”

Welcome to the Welsh capital, David!

Transfers, do you have Turnbull over the line?

I think everything is close to being finished. He was on the way. He should be here and done.

As an Exile living in Scotland I can confirm this guy is pretty decent and quite a few Tic fans aren't happy about him leaving.
£2m bit of a steel to be fair.

Have club confirmed it yet?

Good addition and price, peak value was £5M and current is £3.5M. AMF, much needed creative, apparently fell out of favour in a Lee Tomlineske manner but only 24 and will hopefully have fire in the belly, similar style. Celtic fans unhappy he's gone which is a good sign too. Hartson says he's only been effective off the bench so hopefully the above and EBs man management can unlock him. Takes a good pen too.

No issues with personal terms, the player wants the move.

Brilliant. I’m pleased he’s coming too.

Are you thinking him and Rambo competing for number 10? Or him, Rambo and Siopsis as a 3?

I think he’ll be first choice now for Ralls’ position. Would give us a team looking something like:

Alnwick
Ng Goutas Phillips Collins/New LB
Turnbull Siopis
Meite/New winger Ramsey Grant
Diedhiou/New striker

Not wanting to dampen the mood but is this done or are we getting gazumped again? Class player should be very much on the radar of mid premier teams with bags of money.
