That is probably correct.
Perhaps we are getting a cheaper deal by paying most, if not all the price now, to enable them to avoid further points deductions for being unable to pay their wages this month. This is the kind of thing that used to happen to Cardiff, now it's our turn to benefit.
Didn't we have to sell Graham Kavanagh to Wigan very quickly on a Friday to pay the wages? They had a helicopter to fetch him If I remember correctly.

Payback time ?? :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:


I'd rather have Kavanagh in his prime.

They will not have the money they so desperately need if they refuse to sell him.

Didn't they pay £3m for him last season, and allegedly turned down £3m or £4m last January?

Whether it is £2m as reported last month or £1.5m as reported now (why has it dropped) it is a bargain.

Glatzel £5.5m, Vassell £4m and Madine £6m shows how good a deal I believe this will be.


Did we actually pay £4 million for Vasell? Apparently Boro were interested in him a couple of weeks ago but their manager Mr Warnock has assured them he is a complete crock and not worth paying any money for.

Cardiff City are hopeful of completing the signing of Wales striker Kieffer Moore from Wigan Athletic this week.

Cardiff had a bid, believed to be £2.3m, rejected in January/Fee now £1.mill


BBC

Wednesday 12th August 2020



As Wigan have since gone into administration and been relegated to League One, the fee for the 28-year-old is now expected to be less than £2m.

Middlesbrough, managed by ex-Cardiff boss Neil Warnock, are also keen on Moore but the Bluebirds appear to be in a strong position to sign him.

Cardiff have long been in negotiations with Wigan and there is a chance Moore could be in the Welsh capital for a medical as soon as Wednesday night or Thursday.

And while Cardiff are wary of other clubs' interest in the former Barnsley player, they are confident Moore will become their first signing of the summer.

Manager Neil Harris is eager to add to his attacking options, with Lee Tomlin finishing the 2019-20 season as Cardiff's top league scorer with eight goals.

German striker Robert Glatzel, midfielder Joe Ralls and winger Junior Hoilett all scored seven each as Cardiff finished fifth in the Championship before they were beaten by Fulham in the play-off semi-finals.

Moore, a target man who stands at 6ft 5in, scored 10 goals for Wigan this season and revitalised Wales' Euro 2020 qualification campaign, scoring important goals against Slovakia and Azerbaijan.

So new wingers needed as well now.
Mendez Laing can cross it in the air, problem is it's into the stand behind. Even 6'5" Moore wouldn't reach them

I heard his missus is looking at properties in Tonyrefail, Ferndale and Porth but one of the main selling points to the player himself were the properties in Maerdy. :occasion5:

According to Transfermarkt we paid £1.98 m for Vassell despite his Market Value being only £225k! Another Warnock failure!

Cardiff win Moore battle

Cardiff City have won the race to sign Kieffer Moore from Wigan Athletic.

The Latics accepted multiple offers of £2.5million with Middlesbrough, Millwall and Queens Park Rangers also vying for his signature.

However, Cardiff will sign Moore to bolster Neil Harris' squad. WalesOnlie understands the deal could be announced within the next 24 hours or Friday at the latest.

The Welsh club tried to sign him in January but due to Wigan's precarious financial situation, they have cashed in after being relegated to League One.
