He featured in the Premier League for the first time as a substitute against Manchester City in December.

Leicester approved the loan move to help Alves gain more regular first-team football.

Cardiff manager Omer Riza, who previously coached Alves in the England youth system, was eager to add him to the squad.

"Will is strong, fast, and has a fantastic attitude," Riza told the club’s website.
