    Cardiff City Football Club have today reached an agreement with F.C. Copenhagen for the services of Andreas Cornelius, the 20 year old striker set to join the club for an undisclosed fee on completion of his medical.

    Andreas was top league scorer in his first full season in the 2012/13 Danish Superliga, scoring eighteen goals in thirty two appearances, while also playing and scoring for the club in the Europa League last season. As a result of his contributions, Andreas was named 2013 F.C. Copenhagen Player of the Year.

    A left footed powerful striker, the forward has also represented Denmark at full international level after making his way through the under 18, 19 and 21 ranks.

    First signing :)

    Good news, nice to see Malky is keeping his targets close to his chest. A couple of defenders and a midfield next and we'll be sorted.

    If he can transfer this quality to the Premiership we are in for one interesting season.

    How long have we needed this type of striker?

    Paid £7 to £8 million for him according to the BBC. Is that a transfer record for us? Not messing about are we!

    Wow! Some of those goals were outstanding. If he can do that for us against Premiership defences then we could have another Dennis Bergkamp on our hands. I haven't felt this excited about a signing since we signed Bellers!

    Well in!
    Fantastic player for you, I put on our transfer thread that I wanted him with us and hoped Laudrup being a legend over there would swing it but oh well, definatly 10+ goals from him next year.

    Happy with this, looks like he could be a real match winner if he settles in ok.
    Nice to see this kept under fairly tight wraps as well.

    He's a big bugger who knows where the back of the net is. A lot of money but looks a good buy with loads of promise.

    Ince to follow next week reported to be on £40k per week. That's the attack sorted out then with Velikonja and possibly Rudy to be either loaned out or sold..

    Only that Lennon wants more than 10m for him, and Ledley wants him to stay at Celtic.
