Newport sign Cardiff striker Reindorf on loan

Michael Reindorf has made one Cardiff start, in the EFL Cup against Southampton, while he managed two substitute appearances in the league last season

Cardiff City striker Michael Reindorf has joined Newport County on loan for the 2025-26 season.

The 20-year-old played four times for Cardiff last season, having joined the Bluebirds in the summer of 2024 after being released by Norwich City.

He spent the second half of 2024-25 on loan in League One with Bristol Rovers, but managed only four substitute appearances as the Pirates were relegated.

London-born Reindorf will now get the chance to prove himself in League Two.

"He's a really good addition to what we already have," said Newport boss David Hughes.

"He has great energy and a great ability to threaten space in behind.

"I'd also like to thank Cardiff City for trusting us to work with their young player and to help him develop, whilst understanding our responsibility to ensure that we deliver a successful team on a consistent basis."

Reindorf becomes Newport's fifth signing of the summer, following goalkeeper Nik Tzanev, defender Lee Jenkins, midfielder Matt Smith and forward Ged Garner.
