Why wouldn't they trigger the year extension and then sell him? Surely they would get 500k for him
Released by Bristol City, after 160 appearances in the EFL Championship. Yesterday, Bristol Live reported that 7 clubs were interested in O'Dowda, as he is now out of contract, i.e. free. Today (Tuesday) only Birmingham City and Cardiff City are mentioned (www.the72.co.uk).

Was apparently on 5 figures a week and has a bad injury record. So they were looking at spending £500k+ on wages for a lad not rated at the club if nobody made an offer. Teams might take a chance on him on a free, but I doubt many would pay a transfer fee for a 27 year old with his injury record.
Joins Cardiff on a 3-year contract.

Played well it seems at the weekend
His sister won a bronze in the heptathlon today at the commonwealths. The Irish athlete o Connor was second
Looked good in the highlights everything good came through him , had an assist and should have had a penalty
I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away
Good to see him showing the form he showed in his first few years at Bristol City, when he was considered one of the best midfielders in The Championship - hopefully that will continue and, if it does, we should definitely bring him back soon.
Second of the season for Cardiff this evening.
A dark horse for a call-up this month?
Yeah, for all the excitement here about our prospects, it’s mostly the “old guard” that are making the best case so far this season for a call up and consideration for first XI. O’Dowda and Brady the two that spring to mind straight away.
And O'Dowda scores!! Might be a record day for BIG goals in the Championship?
Six Irish goals in the Championship today. Probably been a while since that last happened alright.
Will be playing LB for the rest of the season as Everton recalled the lad that was starting LB for them.
Second manager they've sacked this season.
Callum O'Dowda remains a serious doubt for Cardiff's game at Blackpool on Good Friday, after he was taken off at half-time in the recent derby v Swansea. Manager Lamouchi says O'Dowda picked up a hamstring injury while playing for Ireland recently.
Callum O'Dowda will miss the rest of the season after suffering a concussion. The 28-year-old was withdrawn as a precaution halfway through Cardiff's 2-1 win over Rotherham United on Thursday night, after taking a blow to the head. Cardiff manager Lamouchi says the club will respect the EFL rules (governing head injuries/concussion). (Wales Online, 28 April)
Started the season at LB today at Elland Road,not really convinced of him in there tbh….
Irish by birth ,Harps by the grace of god.
