Vanarama National League outfit Solihull Moors have completed the signing of former Cardiff City right-back Cameron Coxe.
The 21-year-old defender was linked with a shock move to Premier League giants Manchester City last week, but has now made the switch to play for the West-Midlands outfit.
It came as a shock that he was released by the Bluebirds, having been rated highly by many Cardiff City supporters.
Coxe, who failed to make a league appearance at the Welsh Capital, expressed his delight at signing for the non-league outfit.
Speaking to the official club website, he said: “I’m over the moon to sign for the club, the ambition of the club is great. I can see that everything is looking top-notch so I just can’t wait to get started.
“I was at Cardiff at seven and that’s all I’ve known, but I’m ready for a new start to be fair.
“Right now, I’m hungrier than ever and I can’t wait for the new season to start and get this football club to where it should be.”

The Merthyr-born defender has also represented Wales at every age group from under-17 level, right through to the under-21’s. He was also named in the preliminary squad for the Red Dragons in a friendly against Mexico, but was not selected for the final squad.
