Anwar El Ghazi has officially ended his contract with Mainz and is set to join Cardiff City as a free agent. His departure from Mainz followed a controversial social media post regarding the Israel-Gaza conflict, which led to a wrongful dismissal ruling by a German court that ordered the club to pay him over £1 million in unpaid wages. El Ghazi expressed his commitment to peace and humanity in a statement, highlighting the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The 29-year-old winger, who has a notable history in the Premier League with Aston Villa and Everton, is expected to be unveiled by Cardiff City shortly after completing his medical. His signing marks Cardiff's third acquisition of the summer, following the additions of Calum Chambers and Chris Willock.
