Cardiff City have signed former Leeds United captain Sol Bamba.
The centre-back, who left Leeds in September for personal reasons, has signed a contract which keeps him at the Bluebirds until the summer of 2018.
Bamba began his career with Paris Saint-Germain, before playing for Dunfermline, Hibernian, Leicester and then Leeds.
He has won 44 caps for the Ivory Coast and played in the 2014 World Cup.
He told the club's website that he was keen to work with new City boss Neil Warnock.
"I'm excited to be here," he said. "I always want to work with the gaffer, so as soon as this chance arose I jumped at it.
"I know the league very well and am looking forward to offering my experience and leadership to Cardiff City."
Warnock said: "I tried to sign Sol a few years ago when he was at Leicester, on a couple of occasions. They didn't come off then, but now is the right time and opportunity to bring him in.
"Sol's a leader and he's another good addition for us."
