Cardiff City manager Malky Mackay has signed a new three-and-a-half-year deal with the Championship club.

The Scot, who took over in the summer, will lead his side out at Wembley Stadium on Sunday for the Carling Cup final against Liverpool.

"It's with great pride that I have signed a new and long-term contract," he said.

"My positive thoughts of Cardiff, as a city, a club and its supporters have only been enhanced further since coming to South Wales last summer.

"Along with my coaching team, my squad of players and the many hard working people at the club I look forward to the future as we aim to bring success to this club."

Cardiff are currently fifth in the Championship table.
