Cardiff City have announced their third transfer signing of the summer window.
The Bluebirds have completed a deal for Crewe Alexandra midfielder Ryan Wintle, who has signed a three-year deal and joins on a free transfer.
The 24-year-old made almost 200 appearances for Crewe and was a crucial part of the side which earned promotion to League One in 2019/20, alongside Perry Ng, who made the switch to the Bluebirds back in January.
The news comes shortly after confirmation striker Robert Glatzel has left the club.
"I'm buzzing that it's sorted and I'm so happy to be here," Wintle told Cardiff City TV.
"I'm all-action, I'd say. I get forward, I get back and hopefully I'll try and be a fans' favourite and do everything that they want from me.
"I spoke to [Perry Ng] as soon as I found out about the interest and he had a very high regard for this place.
"When we didn't have a game I watched Cardiff because I was watching Perry. Now I'm here as a player so hopefully we can win games together!
"I then came down, spoke to the Manager, was very happy with what I heard and I couldn't wait to join.
"I'm one of those players that will wear their heart on their sleeve and hopefully I can repay the faith that he's placed in me."
Cardiff have already recruited striker James Collins and defender Mark McGuinness during the window, while midfield options at the club include Will Vaulks, Leandro Bacuna, Joe Ralls and Marlon Pack as midfield options.
