"Josh is a player I've watched for a number of years now and he's always excited me when he runs with the ball," Warnock said https://www.cardiffcityfc.co.uk/news/2018/june/done-deal--josh-murphy-signs-for-city on Cardiff's website.

"I think he's at the right age now with his best still to come...He's been my number one target since the end of last season."

Financial details have not been disclosed but British media reported that Cardiff paid about 10 million pounds ($13.38 million) for the 23-year-old Murphy.
