Is Jack Moylan the Championship Signing of the Season?

Jack Moylan has hit the ground running at Cardiff City, helping himself to ten EFL Championship goals.

Moylan has played a huge role for the Bluebirds, who shot up to 14th in the second-tier table after winning a nine-goal thriller against Burnley before the break.

Moylan in Red-Hot Form

Moylan was part of the Lincoln City team that beat Cardiff to the EFL League One title last term. The Irishman was named in the League One Team of the Season alongside new club and international teammate Joel Bagan.

Brian Barry-Murphy was not too busy in the transfer window, but Moylan’s arrival from Lincoln on a four-year deal in August was eye-catching.

Moylan scored the winner on his debut against Swindon Town in the EFL Cup and has not looked back. The 25-year-old has helped himself to ten Championship goals already, including a first-half hat-trick in the recent 3-3 draw with West Ham United.

He has scored four goals in his last two City appearances, helping his side to a 5-4 victory over Burnley last weekend. The Welsh side were 4-1 down with just 25 minutes to play in that one.

International Duty

Moylan has also impressed at international level, netting a memorable hat-trick on his Republic of Ireland debut. He has been named in Ireland’s squad for the upcoming UEFA Nations League games against Austria and Kosovo.

The Irish have every chance of reaching League A, sitting level on five points with Kosovo and three points behind leaders Austria with two to play. Heimir Hallgrimsson’s men travel to Linz to play the Austrians on Saturday before hosting the Kosovans in Dublin next week.

After returning from the international break, Moylan and his Cardiff teammates make the trip to Carrow Road to face in-form Norwich City. Can the Bluebirds keep up their fine form and stun the Canaries in Norfolk?
