Ex Connah’s Quay Nomads forward Rhys Healey has left Cardiff City to join MK Dons.
The Nomads sold Healey to the Bluebirds back in 2013 for an undisclosed fee. It is unsure whether the Nomads may receive any sell-on-fee for the possible sale of the 24-year-old.
The 24-year-old spent the first half of last season in League, helping them to promotion as he scored nine goals in 21 games.
Healey returned to his parent club and made three appearances in the English Premier League.
“It was a no brainer for me,” said Healey after making the permanent move to Stadium MK.
“I really enjoyed my time here last season so as soon as this move come around, I was on to and desperate to get it done.
“I was keeping an eye on results every week – I was a secret fan! I was desperate for the guys to get promoted and I was really happy when we got over the line.
“I felt like I was playing some of my best football here last season so I’m ready to go again this season and kick on even more.
“Like last season, I want to work hard, score goals and help the team push up the league.”
It brings to an end a six-year association with Cardiff City.
He could line up against a fellow former Welsh Premier League striker. Adam Roscrow joined AFC Wimbledon this summer from Cardiff Metropolitan.
