Greece defender Dimitrios Goutas joins Cardiff on two-year deal
Cardiff have signed Greece defender Dimitrios Goutas on a two-year contract.
The 29-year-old most recently played for Sivasspor, making 84 appearances for the Turkish club and scoring five goals.
He joins the Sky Bet Championship side as a free agent ahead of the 2023-24 season and cannot wait to get going.
“I’m very excited to be here,” Goutas told Cardiff City TV. “From the first day I came here, I’ve felt warmth from everybody. I’m happy to join the team and I will give my best to achieve our goals.
“I can’t wait to train with the team and help with my experience. I will always give 100 per cent and try to help the young players – that’s why I’m here.”
Bluebirds boss Erol Bulut said: “He can organise from the back and he is a good size for the Championship. He also has good speed, so I think he will be a very useful player for our style.
“He is one of those people who is really dangerous in the air and can score goals from set-pieces, which will be very good for us.”
