New Cardiff boss Paul Trollope was part of the Wales coaching team at Euro 2016 this summer, during which time he got to see Richards close up as the full-back made one substitute appearance for Chris Coleman's side.

The 25-year-old joined Fulham in January 2015 and now returns to South Wales have previously made more than 50 appearances for Swansea City.

"We think he'll be a great addition to the squad," Trollope told the club's official website.

Malone, also 25, made 42 appearances for Cardiff last season and scored two goals in 56 games overall following his move from Millwall in January of last year.

The left-back has signed a two-year deal with Fulham, while Richards has put pen to paper on a three-year contract at Cardiff.
