Joseph William Humphrey Jeffrey "Joe" Ralls (born 13 October 1993) is an English footballer who plays for Cardiff City as a midfielder.

Career

Early career

Ralls played for Aldershot Town, where he played one game in the Aldershot Senior Cup tie against Bagshot, before joining Farnborough under-16s. After he was spotted by Cardiff City scouts along with Jordan Carter, a small compensation was paid by Cardiff to sign the two players. He agreed to play in a trial match for Premier League side Fulham, although this was postponed before he joined Cardiff.[3]

Cardiff City

Ralls made his first team debut against Oxford United in the League Cup on 10 August 2011.[4] His first start came against Huddersfield Town 13 days later. He signed his first professional contract on 30 September.[5] Ralls made his league debut a day later against Hull City, where he also scored a stunning volley for his debut goal.[6] His first league start came on 10 December in a goalless draw at Millwall.[7]

In the 2012/2013 pre-season friendlies, Ralls scored the second goal in a 4-1 victory against Premier League team Newcastle United. He started the first competitive match of the season against Northampton Town in the League Cup. On November 17, 2012, Ralls filled in at left-back following an injury to Andrew Taylor as City saw off Middlesbrough 1-0 at Cardiff City Stadium.

International career

Ralls received his first international call for the England Under-19s to replace the injured Robert Hall to play Czech Republic in February.[8] Ralls came on in the games to make his English debut.[9]
