Cardiff City have signed Nottingham Forest defender Jonathan Panzo.

Panzo has moved to Cardiff on-loan for the season.

"I picked Cardiff City because of the gaffer, the team and I felt like it was an exciting project," said Panzo.

"I'm buzzing to be here and for it to finally get across the line. I can't wait to get started.

"I want to show the fans what I can do and help the boys shine."

Cardiff manager Erol Bulut said, "I'm pleased that Jonathan has agreed to join.

"He's going to bring extra stability to our defence.

"He had a very good season with Coventry City last year and already has great experience of this league.

"He's a left-sided centre-back, which gives us something we needed. It's a very good signing for us."
