Roko Šimić transferred to Cardiff on the last day of the transfer window and was immediately loaned to Kortrijk in Belgium.

RB Salzburg has transferred the young Croatian striker to Cardiff for nearly half the amount they paid Lokomotiva three years ago. Cardiff is set to pay 2 million euros, with the transfer potentially increasing by another half a million if agreed bonuses are met. Additionally, Salzburg will receive 10 percent of the next transfer. Šimić will not immediately join Cardiff's squad but will instead finish the season on loan at Kortrijk, who are currently 12th in the Belgian Pro League.

Roko Šimić has completed his transfer from Salzburg to Cardiff City, a club in the Welsh Championship. Cardiff City will pay a fixed transfer fee of 2 million euros, with potential bonuses of 500 thousand euros, and Salzburg retains a 10% sell-on clause.
