Cardiff City currently compete in EFL League One, the third tier of English football, for the 2025–26 season. This follows relegation from the Championship.
- Quick context: Cardiff City is a Welsh club that has spent time in the top tier (Premier League) in the past, but in recent seasons they have been competing in the lower tiers of the English system.
- For the 2025–26 campaign, they are listed as playing in League One, with the season officially described as their first back in League One since the early 2000s.
- Additional sources corroborate their League One status and note the club’s ongoing participation in domestic cup competitions (FA Cup, EFL Cup, EFL Trophy) during this season.
If you’d like, I can pull together a concise snapshot of their current standing, recent results, and key fixtures for League One 2025–26.
