Premier League new-boys Huddersfield Town have completed the signing of former Cardiff City, Millwall and AFC Bournemouth winger Scott Malone for an undisclosed fee.

Malone has put pen to paper on a three year contract, with Huddersfield Town having the option to extend the deal by a further season in 2020.

The left-sided player came through the Wolverhampton Wanderers academy but never made a first team appearance for the club, leaving in 2012 to sign for the Cherries.

A year later he joined Millwall, spending three seasons at the New Den before joining Cardiff in 2015. Malone joined Fulham on a two-year deal in a swap deal with Jazz Richards joining Cardiff. The 26-year-old made 42 appearances for the Cottagers in 2016-17, scoring six times.

Huddersfield Town head coach David Wagner commented: “I’m excited to welcome Scott to Huddersfield Town. Our fans will have seen in our games against Fulham last season what a good player he is and I know his abilities will suit our style of play very well.

“Scott is a good physical presence and is a very capable defender, plus he adds a lot going forward. He shows good football intelligence to time his forward runs and can setup goals for teammates and scoring them himself.

“We already have a very good left back in Chris Löwe and a real young talent in Tareiq Holmes-Dennis, but as we enter our first Premier League season it is so important to have competition and the ability to rotate our side, as we did so successfully last season.”
