CARDIFF CITY PREPARE TO LAUNCH £10 MILLION BID FOR TOULOUSE MIDFIELDER ETIENNE CAPOUE:


After revealing his frustration in the transfer window yesterday, Cardiff City Manager Malky Mackay has revealed his newest target, Etienne Capoue.

Failing to land a high profile target this summer, as Cardiff missed out on Tom Ince and Victor Wanyama, the Bluebirds are prepared to launch a £10 million bid for Capoue

The 25 year-old Toulouse midfielder has expressed his interest in a move to the premier league with Arsenal, Everton, Liverpool and Tottenham expressing interest in the midfielder within the past year.

A product of the Toulouse youth academy, Capoule has made 174 league appearances and scored 13 goals for the Ligue 1 side since breaking through the first team in 2007.

Capoue is coming off one of his best seasons with the Ligue 1 side, scoring 7 goals in 38 appearances.

With only one signing on the books, the record £8.5 million signing of Andreas Cornelius, Mackay looks poised to sign a high profile player as his team looks to challenge in their inaugural Premier League season.

Where does it actually say Malky has ''revealed'' this information.?

Capoue is a brilliant player but I'm not going to get a woody over any rumours any more
