Exciting times for Cardiff City fans as winger Tanatswa Nyakuhwa is on the brink of a loan switch to Newport County! 🚀 As Cardiff’s January reshuffle gathers pace, the 20-year-old talent is looking to get more regular game time and hone his skills across South Wales.
Newport County, battling to avoid relegation in League Two, is keen to beef up its squad. They snagged Nyakuhwa despite competition from Kilmarnock and Bristol Rovers. The move would mark Newport’s second signing of the window after Harrison Biggins joined from Shrewsbury.
Nyakuhwa has made eight appearances for Cardiff this season and is looking to step up with more first-team experience. This loan could be just the opportunity he needs, as Brian Barry-Murphy wants the Wales U21 star to flourish with regular senior football. 🏆
The January window is abuzz with activity for Cardiff. Midfielders Troy Perrett and Dakarai Mafico have moved to Yeovil Town, with Mafico making an immediate impact as man of the match on his debut. Meanwhile, young stars Luey Giles and Will Spiers have joined Eastleigh, and goalkeeper Jak Alnwick is now with Huddersfield Town.
Forward Michael Reindorf might also find himself loaned out again, and goalkeeper Ethan Horvath seems set to move on after his stint at Sheffield Wednesday.
Nyakuhwa’s potential switch to Newport would keep him close enough for Cardiff to keep a keen eye on his development during this critical phase. With 11 appearances in all competitions, the promise of regular playing time at Newport could be a turning point for this young talent. ⚽️
Stay tuned, Bluebirds fans, this January is shaping up to be a pivotal time for our promising players! 💙
