It is not inaccurate to say Ollie Tanner was one of the most sought-after teenagers in England over the last five months. On Tuesday, though, Cardiff City were the club who won the race to his signature.
What a hotly-contested race it was, too. Indeed, just days before he put pen to paper on his Bluebirds deal, another club came in and tried to hijack the move. But for Tanner, Cardiff felt different, it felt right.
Let's rewind a couple of months and the young winger had hit the headlines for turning down a move to Premier League giants Tottenham. A deal had been agreed with his club, Lewes FC, but there was something off. Tanner was never dead set on the move, unsure of the plans that were put in place for him there.
