Cardiff City star Josh Murphy involved in car accident on eve of Brentford clash

Cardiff City's Josh Murphy was involved in a car accident on the A470 on Friday morning.

There were no injuries to the Bluebirds winger or any other party.

Despite the incident, the 25-year-old was well enough to attend training later that day and is in contention for selection for the Bluebirds' Championship clash with Brentford this afternoon. You can follow live updates on the game here.

The news that Murphy was unharmed in the incident is, of course, greatly welcomed, but it will be an added bonus to Bluebirds fans given the run of form he has recently been in.

Despite not scoring in the last two games, Murphy went on a run of netting five times in his previous six outings as he looked to regain his top form.

Without the genius of Lee Tomlin in the ranks, City fans will be turning to Murphy to add that ingenuity and flare as the Bluebirds look to get their top-six push back on track.

Murphy was named to start on the bench against Brentford.
