Charlie Holt, 17, has left Manchester City's academy for Cardiff, initially joining their U21 squad, BongdaPlus reported. The midfielder made 12 appearances for City's U18s and represented England U15, but had not played for City's first team. City allowed him to train with Cardiff before the Welsh club decided to sign him. The move follows the financial ruling involving City, but the report does not establish that the ruling caused his departure.
