Charlton Athletic striker Marcus Bent's proposed move to Cardiff City has fallen through.

The 30-year-old was on the verge of sealing a switch to Ninian Park but has now decided to open talks with Birmingham City.

A statement on the Bluebirds' official website read: "Shortly before Marcus Bent was due to arrive for his medical and complete his move to Cardiff City, we were informed that he had changed his mind and asked Charlton permission to speak to Birmingham.

"Whilst at this stage we are unaware of whether he has been given permission to talk to Birmingham City, we only want players who are committed to Cardiff City Football Club and therefore have withdrawn from the deal."
