Cardiff bag £11million ace Murphy

Premier League new boys Cardiff City have signed winger Josh Murphy on a four-year deal from Norwich.

The 23-year-old, brother of Newcastle winger Jacob, becomes the Bluebirds’ first new arrival since securing their return to the top flight.

Murphy, who scored 11 goals for the Canaries last season, joins for an undisclosed fee, reportedly around £11million.

Boss Neil Warnock said: “Josh is a player I’ve watched for a number of years now and he’s always excited me when he runs with the ball.

“I think he’s at the right age now with his best still to come. He can play an instrumental part in helping us to stay in the Premier League and I know he’s looking forward to the challenge.

“He’s been my number one target since the end of last season.”

Atletico Madrid have reached an agreement with Monaco to sign winger Thomas Lemar.

Lemar, 22, had been linked with moves to Liverpool and Arsenal over the past 12 months but now he looks set to make the switch to LaLiga.

Scottish Premiership club Rangers have signed Croatian centre-back Nikola Katic from Slaven Belupo.
