Javier Saviola is one of the more left-field transfer rumours this summer.

Welcome to the Premier League! If one thing has confirmed Cardiff City's status among the big boys this summer, it is the never-ending transfer rumour-mill they have found themselves a part of on an almost daily basis.

From unheard of Ghanaian defenders to the man once dubbed 'the new Maradona', the Bluebirds have been linked with an eclectic mix of players from around the world.

As things stand, just one of them, record £8.5m signing Andreas Cornelius, has put pen to paper.

So what has been the truth behind the rumours? Which ones are grounded in truth? And which ones turned out to be complete nonsense?

Scroll through the gallery for our verdict on the top 25 players the club have been linked with in recent weeks.

There's been so many, we're bound to have missed a few, and there's sure to be plenty more before the transfer window close on September 2.

"The old 'new Maradona' Javier Saviola is reportedly a target for Cardiff City, West Ham and Arsenal. Another one that seems highly unlikely."

And yet Sky Sports say he's interested in a move to the Championship with QPR. :lol:
