Super Eagles defender Gabriel Osho is set to return to England after a season in the French Ligue 1 with AJ Auxerre.
English League One outfit Cardiff City have agreed personal terms with the 27-year-old Osho, who previously played under manager Brian Barry Murphy at Rochdale.
Cardiff were relegated from the English Championship last season and are unbeaten after five matches – four wins and a draw.
Osho is a central defender, who could also play at right fullback.
He has made over 150 senior appearances across the Premier League, Championship and Ligue 1.
