Cardiff City sign Charlton's Dillon Phillips and close on Leicester's Filip Benkovic

Cardiff City have signed goalkeeper Dillon Phillips and are set to land Leicester City centre-back Filip Benkovic on loan.

Phillips, 25, has joined for an undisclosed fee having been a regular in the Championship for Charlton Athletic last season.

Benkovic, 23, is expected to sign on loan for the rest of the season.

The Croatia international joined Leicester for a reported fee of £13m in August 2018 from Dynamo Zagreb.

But he has made only one League Cup appearance for the Foxes and spent the 2018-19 season on loan at Celtic and had Championship experience with Bristol City last term, making 10 league appearances and scoring twice.
