Malky to talk to Ince shortly

Malky Mackay says he hopes to talk to Tom Ince shortly as Cardiff look to wrap up an £8million deal for the Blackpool winger. The Bluebirds are thought to have had their offer for the England Under-21 international accepted by the Seasiders at the weekend and are now hopeful of sitting down with Ince to discuss terms.

Swansea and Liverpool were both thought to be keen on the 21-year-old but Cardiff are leading the race for his signature after indicating they are willing to match his demands for a contract worth £35,000-a-week. The two parties are yet to talk face-to-face due to Ince having been on international duty with the England Under-21s before he went on his summer holiday. Mackay is eager to sit down with exciting youngster and hopes his vision for Cardiff City will persuade him to sign.

"Thomas has been on holiday, so that's what's happened. It won't be long until we get the chance to sit down with him and his family," Mackay told Wales Online. "It's always the player's decision; clubs can accept bids from anyone but at the end of the day it's always the player's decision. "What you have got to do is get the chance to talk to them and for that to happen the club have to accept your offers. "If I'm able to sit down. I talk to them about the vision we've got here and the way we've structured the club and the massive benefits that I see in coming to Cardiff City."

I just wish I knew when he was coming back from holiday as the suspense is killing me! If anyone picks him up at the airport or sees him, can you put it on this forum just so we know the deals nearly done!

He's already back from hols. Was in Blackpools training ground today. Last goodbyes??

Transfer window = waiting nervously for something to happen and then right at the end it all happens too quickly.

Some know this as the losing your virginity equation.

Ah well if he doesn't wanna come here, we move on

Reminds me of the bellamy saga last season.. We all kinda new he was coming but it seemed to drag on for ages

Does mean that the reports of the medical already booked are rubbish?

Since he came back from holiday early do you think that he might sign earlier than expected?

I think he may just be excited to train again, I can see him staying for one more year with Blackpool but his dads interview said he wants him to play first team football in the PL, so surely we are the right club

KIMBO dragged on for ages like this. KIMBO was holding out for Dortmund and Celtic who were interested but never made the offer.

You got that wrong, it was his parent club and permit issues which held Kimbo deal, as well as the Olympics football. Whilst the deal was all agreed in principal.....Cerezo Osaka wanted to announce the deal first at an appropriate time, before we were able to announce it (or something similar like that).

But then again, I maybe wrong as well

That is true but he his agent held out as they were aware of interest from Dortmund and Celtic which dragged it on for longer.

I think Malky is very persuasive and the vision at our club would obviously attract a lot of players. New stadium, training faculties and a billionaire backer. As soon as Malky and Ince sit down the better!

Surely Paul Ince would be happy for him to come here with MM being a great manager.

Yes
