Cardiff City have swooped for Uruguay U20 international Maximiliano Amondarain.
The 20-year-old had a spell on trial with the Bluebirds, who confirmed the signing on their club website, earlier this summer and he impressed manager Malky Mackay enough to secure a move from CA Progreso on a four-year contract.
The centre-half was part of the Uruguay Under-20's squad that finished runners-up to France in the World Cup in Turkey.
