Cardiff City snap up Charlton fans’ favourite Jonny Williams

Cardiff City have completed the signing of Charlton attacker Jonny Williams.

The Welsh cluh are under new management and Mick McCarthy is a big admirer of the Wales international, who he twice signed on loan while Cardiff City chief.

Williams, 27, underwent his medical this morning.

McCarthy said: “I think it is one of the best deals of the transfer window. Especially late on, we’ve managed to get Jonny Williams in. I worked with him at Ipswich. He was fabulous. He brings a smile to the place. He’s very, very talented. And he’s Welsh, of course.

“He’s delighted to be here. If he can play to his ability, then he’ll rip it up.”

The former Crystal Palace man made 66 appearances for the Addicks and scored two goals.

He was one of the leading Championship players for assists at the start of last season before injury took him out of the side.

Williams earned a recall to the international fold while on Charlton’s books.
