"I give 100% - I'm a hard worker, I'm positive, I like to go forward and take players on...

"Now I can't wait to get the kit on, play as many games as I can and help this great Club to be where they need to be."

Neil Warnock also spoke to cardiffcityfc.co.uk, adding: "I watched a lot of Gavin while we were scouting Curtis Nelson.

"He just excited me so much. He's full of enthusiasm and is just the type of player that we were looking for.

"I think he'll be a fans' favourite for years to come."
