Cardiff City have confirmed the signing of former Manchester City and Swansea City goalkeeper Brian Murphy on a free transfer.

The 33-year-old has signed a two-year deal at the Championship side after being released by League Two Portsmouth earlier this summer.

"I'm delighted to be here and looking forward to getting going now," Murphy told BBC Sport.

"I'm used to working hard and that's what I'll do. Hopefully we'll push each other every day and when it comes to Saturday, you get what you deserve."

Murphy joins subject to international clearance and is set to offer competition to goalkeepers Ben Amos and Ben Wilson.
