Cardiff City have signed Ryan Giles on a season-long loan from Premier League Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Giles, a left-sided player who can operate in defence or midfield, played in the Championship last season during loan spells at Coventry and Rotherham.
The England Under-20 international, 21, has appeared once for Wolves, in an FA Cup tie at Shrewsbury in 2019.
"Cardiff City is a massive club, with a great history and an amazing fanbase," Giles told the Bluebirds' website.
"It was a no-brainer when I knew the interest was there," he added. "There are some very good players here and I think the competition will be healthy. Hopefully it will bring the best out of me."
Giles is Championship side Cardiff's fourth summer g after defender Mark McGuinness, striker James Collins and midfielder Ryan Wintle.
Telford-born Giles scored twice in 23 appearances - 12 of which were starts - for Rotherham last season having spent the first half of the campaign at Coventry, where he played 21 times.
Giles, who had a loan spell at Shrewsbury in the 2019-20 season, signed a long-term contract at Molineux in December 2020.
