“I never thought I would be Saying this “

Thu Aug 01, 2024 9:48 am

One of the best Cardiff City signings in recent times.

Anwar El Ghazi

He not only is a high quality player but he is a person who has character , determination , drive and initiative.

On paper we’ve made a very good signing ….now let us get him fully fit ….and hopefully see him perform to the expectations on grass .

The guy has balls and conviction . You can’t say the same about too many of our players.


Very well done to the Club hierarchy.

Have to agree, excellent signing :bluebird:

Agreed. Hopefully being the club that gave him the opportunity to resurrect his career, may help with a longer contract going forward.

You're right about players not putting 100% in for the shirt. Snowflakes stealing a living. Modern day football for you.

I still can’t believe this one has come off. I’d love to know how we managed to get him interested and signed.

Some real quality in that First XI now. I’m not completely convinced by the striker but he certainly looks better than what we had last season and with Robinson looking like he’s got his act together we could be ok.

Only signed a 1 year contract but hopefully if things work out can extend that for another couple of years

4 decent signings so far and not a penny spent in transfer fees (I’m sure agent fees and signing in fees are pretty hefty though)

I think we still need a another striker to share the workload as the championship is relentless

Great signing and shouldn't take long to get match fit again it's not like he coming back from injury.

I don’t think Forever Blue was alluding to that but this has the potential to be a great signing in the mould of Ricky Scimeca (for those who remember him)

I feel the one-year contract is fair on both sides and if it works out, an extension would be a formality…

Welcome new Bluebird, Anwar El Ghazi… :ayatollah:

Superb signing and what a man sticking by his principles, which were proven to be correct in court

Believe it may have been with NG they appear to be friends! Unusual for a player of this quality not to be approached by a bigger club here or abroad certainly from above championship level clubs!

Watch his interview on Cardiff City TV.

There was other interest in the UK and Europe but he chose us. He said we have a good history.

He is under the same agency as Perry Ng so they know each other. Should mean they’ll have a good understanding and they’ll both play on the same side of the pitch.

Getting in quality players like ghazi only helps players like Robertson to choose us over other clubs..

It could be - Calum Chambers was at Villa at the time as El Ghazi ...So 2 new players knowing each other :thumbup:
