Feltscher looked to be on his way to Birmingham City, but could be bound for their Championship rivals instead.

Venezuela's Rolf Feltscher argues with Argentina's Javier Mascherano (L) during their 2018 World Cup qualifier football match in Buenos Aires, on September 5, 2017.

According to the Sun, Cardiff City are ready to sign Venezuela defender Rolf Feltscher after a proposed move to Birmingham City fell through.

The same publication reported last month that Birmingham were close to signing Feltscher, who is a free agent after leaving Getafe at the end of last season.

But Feltscher remained without a club after the Blues sacked then boss Harry Redknapp, and according to the Sun he still fancies a move to the Championship.

It is claimed in the report that Feltscher had been set to sign for MLS outfit, LA Galaxy, but he is said to have trained with Cardiff on Sunday.

The Switzerland-born 27-year-old can play anywhere across the back four, and would strengthen Neil Warnock’s options ahead of the Championship’s gruelling winter schedule.

Cardiff, who lost 1-0 at Birmingham last weekend, have remained in the division’s automatic promotion places after beating Middlesbrough away on Saturday.

Would Feltscher be a good signing for the Bluebirds?
