Callum O'Dowda has left Cardiff City to join Hungarian side Ferencvaros for an undisclosed fee.
The 30-year-old Republic of Ireland international, capped 32 times by his country, joined the Bluebirds in July 2022 after leaving Bristol City.
O'Dowda, who can play in midfield or at full-back, spent six years at Ashton Gate after signing from Oxford United.
He had been linked with a return to Oxford following Cardiff's relegation from the Championship last season.
O'Dowda played 94 games for Cardiff, scoring six times, including 45 appearances in the 2024-25 under a succession of managers.
A statement on the Cardiff website said: "We'd like to thank Callum for his efforts over the past three seasons and wish him the best of luck for the future."
