Cardiff boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to get more funds - says Cardiff City chairman Dalman
Cardiff manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will be given even more funds to strengthen the squad, says chairman Mehmet Dalman.
Solskjaer has signed five players so far since relegation from the Premier League and Dalman said the recruitment plans showed their intent to gain promotion back to the top-flight.

"[Owner] Vincent Tan is prepared to put his chequebook out and support these hirings," Dalman said.
"That shows the determination to come back from last year's disappointment."
"One of the criticisms we had last year was the fact we didn't have enough firepower upfront.
"I think we rectified that with the latest signings and obviously what we want to do now is pay attention to the midfield and the defence.
"That's where I think we'll be focusing our efforts in the next couple of months."
Dalman has assumed chief executive responsibilities at Cardiff after Simon Lim stepped down as chief executive after 18 months in the role.
Dalman will now over see all future transfers and will also take responsibility for the every day running of the club.
