    Cardiff City have accepted an offer for Wales midfielder Emyr Huws from rival Championship team Ipswich Town.

    The 23-year-old spent the last four months of last season on loan at Portman Road.

    "I spoke to [Ipswich manager] Mick McCarthy and we've... accepted an offer and I think it's just down to the two clubs to sort the little details out," Cardiff manager Neil Warnock said.

    "I think the player is happy, he had a good time there and we wish him well."

    Huws came through the Swansea City and Manchester City youth systems, signing senior forms with the Manchester giants in 2012.

    The midfielder joined Wigan Athletic in September 2014 after a successful loan spell the previous season, but joined Cardiff in August 2016 on a three-year deal.

    Huws made his senior debut for Wales in a friendly against Iceland in March 2014 and has won 11 caps, scoring one goal.

    Cardiff manager Warnock has also confirmed he wants to sign a further three players ahead of the new season.

    Potentially a very good player but it just hasn't worked for the lad here.

    Looks like Ipswich want him, he wants to go and Neil doesn't fancy him so best to let him go.

    Just hope we got the million quid back that was wasted on him.

    I thought it might be savvy to include a buy-back clause.

    Surprised he's left to be honest. Quite excited when he signed.

    I'm not surprised he's leaving but I'm a bit surprised it hasn't worked out. He's certainly capable and I'd hope we have the foresight to include a sell on clause but it has become clear it wasn't going to work here and it is best to part ways now. Certainly need at least one centre mid now.

    Another footballer shown the door at the club. Will we have anyone who can actually pass the football here come August 5th?

    There is no real evidence that he would have been the ball passer, controlling player we need, in fact it could well have been very risky to amuse that .

    I can see the logic in letting him go ,probably wanted away , perhaps the clubs have seen something we don't know , IE off field behavior, poor trainer ,poor attitude , didn't settle in the area , excessive wages , who knows, we move on .

    In Warnock we must trust , if he had shown anything worthwhile and was worth that value he would be staying.

    No, in fact haven't had that many for quite a few years now.

    Noting his successful loan spell & international selection, I think it would be reasonable to expect in excess of £1m & a sell on clause. That said, I think it's pretty short sighted that we are selling him as with a run of games I think that he could be a good player for us.
