Former Cardiff City forward Federico Macheda has admitted to the Italian media his two-year spell didn’t go to plan. The 25-year-old was this summer released by the Championship side, and he’s now waiting for another club to come in for him.

Speaking to TMW, Macheda was asked how he thought his time in south Wales went. The Italian said unfortunately it didn’t go to plan because of the injury problems he had whilst at the club. He believes these issues didn’t help him get any consistency, and feels it was right to leave Cardiff City this summer.

“Things did not go well, unfortunately. In the two years I had some physical problems that did not allow me to have the continuity that I hoped for. It was right to turn the page,” said Macheda.

Macheda has never been able to rediscover the form he showed in his first season with Manchester United, when he scored vital goals to help the club win the Premier League title. The forward has had several loan spells with a number of clubs, including Nottingham Forest last season.

Macheda now ready to pick a new club and although the striker has had offers, he’s not yet had the right one.
