Cardiff City academy player promoted to first team permanently as problem position emerges
The Bluebirds player has been permanently promoted to the first team after impressing for the youth team
Cardiff City have promoted Michael Reindorf to the first-team training squad permanently after his run of goals for the youth team.
The 19-year-old signed as a free agent in the summer having left Norwich City, this weekend's opponents, for Omer Riza's side, and has impressed in front of goal, scoring 12 times in total for the under-21s.
The forward also put in solid showings against Bristol Rovers and Southampton in Carabao Cup matches, providing his first senior assist against the Saints for Rubin Colwill's screamer, but has not featured in a Championship matchday squad so far this term
And Riza has taken note of Reindorf's form for the under-21s and has made him a permanent fixture in first-team training sessions, however it sounds like there is a way to go before he leapfrogs others in the pecking order. Sign up to our daily Cardiff City newsletter here .
"I've been to a lot of the under-21s games, I try to go to as many as I can. I couldn't get to the Swansea one because I was down in London," Riza said
