Harry Wilson has followed Craig Bellamy's lead once again by leaving the Premier League for the Championship. The 26-year-old winger has joined Cardiff City on a season-long loan deal from Fulham.

It is a similar move to the one Bellamy made in 2011 when he left Manchester City to join Cardiff. Bellamy went on to become a legend at the Welsh club, scoring 42 goals in 129 appearances.

Wilson will be hoping to have a similar impact at Cardiff. He is a talented player who has represented Wales at every level from under-17s to the senior team.

He has also played for Liverpool, Hull City, Derby County and Bournemouth. Wilson scored seven goals in 30 appearances for Fulham last season.

Cardiff manager Steve Morison is delighted to have signed Wilson. He said: "Harry is a player I have admired for a long time. He is a very talented footballer who can play in a number of positions.

"He is a great addition to our squad and I am looking forward to working with him."

Wilson is likely to make his Cardiff debut against Birmingham City on Saturday.

What does this mean for Wales?

Wilson's move to Cardiff is a boost for the Wales national team. He is a player who can provide creativity and goals from the wing.

Wales manager Rob Page will be hoping that Wilson can rediscover his form at Cardiff and help Wales qualify for the 2024 European Championship.

Conclusion

Wilson's move to Cardiff is a reminder of the close links between the Welsh club and the Wales national team. Bellamy is a legend at both club and country, and Wilson will be hoping to follow in his footsteps.
