“ Uncertainty about Cardiff Defenders Future ? “

Cardiff City defender Jesper Daland faces an uncertain future after Fortuna Düsseldorf's relegation threw a huge spanner in the works of his move away from the Bluebirds.

The Norwegian centre-back spent last season on loan with Fortuna Düsseldorf, who held an option to sign him permanently this summer.

City are willing to sell him if the price is right and their is an option for Firtuna Düsseldorf to have first opportunity.

Cut losses and get rid. Back to back relegations. Championship is not for him.

Wasn't even an option for BBM to see him he's was going as the club wanted him off the wage bill before a ball was kicked BBM said in an interview he don't know wants going on with him when asked would he like to keep him this was a day or two in to BBM coming here, so the club offloading before he even has a look or say in truth.

I don't think our relegation had anything to do with the way our centre halves played. Far more to do with totally inept management and ownership
