The 23-year-old, who has 13 first-team appearances for the Reds, also earned Championship experience at the likes of Wigan Athletic, Wolves and Fulham.

Upon putting pen to paper in the Welsh capital, Sheyi spoke exclusively to Cardiff City TV, saying: “I’ve got a point to prove and I’m really excited for the new challenge."

“Cardiff City is a massive club with great fans and great players – hopefully I can show what I can do here and fit right in."

Comfortable across the forward line both out wide or in a number ten role Sheyi set his sights on hitting the ground running ahead of Saturday's season opener.

"Wherever the ball is, I want to be involved in the game as much as possible," he continued.

“I’m delighted to get here in time for a full week’s training with the team ahead of the first home game this Saturday. Now it’s important that we start right," he stated.
