Maccabi Tel Aviv's Cruyff thrilled with arrival of Cardiff's Earnshaw

Cardiff City striker Robert Earnshaw has joined Maccabi Tel Aviv on loan.

The 31-year old Wales international has penned a season-long loan deal with the Israeli club, delighting sports director Jordi Cruyff.

"I am delighted with this latest addition," he said.

"The last day of the transfer window always gives pleasant surprises and this is one of them. His goal-scoring record speaks in itself."

Earnshaw has failed to appear for the Bluebirds in the Championship so far this season following the summer arrivals of Craig Bellamy, Heidar Helguson, Tommy Smith and Nicky Maynard.
