Fri Aug 30, 2024 8:50 pm

Cardiff City have terminated the contract of Mahlon Romeo with immediate effect.

The right-back has not featured once for Cardiff during pre-season nor during the season proper after it was revealed the homophobic nature of his abuse towards police officers following his drink-drive arrest earlier this year.


While the club have until now kept their counsel, they said in a statement: "Cardiff City and Mahlon Romeo have agreed to terminate his contract by mutual consent to allow the player to seek other opportunities.


Romeo had publicly apologised

Cardiff have only had to pay a very small % of his contract
