Manga Signs New Contract

We’re pleased to announce that Bruno Ecuele Manga has agreed a new contract with Cardiff City Football Club that will keep him with the Bluebirds until the summer of 2019.

Having signed for City in September 2014, Bruno has made seventy-seven first team appearances, scoring five goals. He was voted as Cardiff City ‘Player of the Season’ for his contribution during the 2014/15 campaign.

Speaking to cardiffcityfc.co.uk, Executive Director & CEO Ken Choo said: “We’re thrilled to have secured Bruno’s services for another two seasons and know that he’ll continue to be a fantastic asset for Cardiff City Football Club.

“We see this as another major piece of business for us this summer, building up on those deals that have already been finalised.”

Twenty-eight year old Bruno featured twenty-seven times last season and Manager Neil Warnock feels having the Gabon international tied down for another two years is of key significance.

Neil said: “It’s been quite a long process to get this one done, but what’s been clear to me throughout it all is that Bruno wants to play for this Club, which is the most important thing. I’m absolutely delighted."

Bruno added: "I am really pleased to be continuing my adventure with this magnificent club.

"I would like to thank the Manager and the Board for having trust in me. Now it's time to work towards getting back to where we all want to be."

Makes the team stronger at the back.

Yes! That's great!

I'm feeling very optimistic about our campaign now!

Absolutely fantastic. Says so much about the optimism around the club and confidence in Neil Warnock. More thrilled about this than any of the summer signings. A real coup!

Can't remember the last time we had a summer as efficient as this - and the window doesn't officially open for another few days!

Warnock will surely now go with three at the back, so just a few midfielder to bring in now.
