' CARDIFF CITY FLOP LINKED WITH MOVE TO PORTUGAL '


Former Cardiff City forward Federico Macheda has been linked with a move to Portuguese club Olhanense, according to claims in the Italian media. The former Manchester United starlet has been without a club after his contract with Cardiff City was terminated by mutual consent in the summer.

TMW have today revealed Olhanense are considering signing Macheda, and the Segunda club wouldn’t have to wait until the transfer window opens in January because the forward is without a club.

Olhanense have sporting director Giuseppe Bifulco within their ranks, and the Italian is keen to bring in his compatriot. However, they will face competition to sign Macheda, with several Italian sides claimed to be interested in the player.

Macheda has never been able to rediscover the form he showed in his first season with Manchester United, when he scored vital goals to help the club win the Premier League title. The forward has had several loan spells with a number of clubs, including Nottingham Forest last season.

Perhaps His Birmingham spell would be worth mentioning? It was said when he signed for Cardiff, that he needed some special management.. if someone could ignite the passion in the lad, you'd have to be pretty blind not to see the talent. It's like judging Kenwyne on the miles he run, or the duels Daehlie lost against Millwall.
After his run of injuries, think he would be nice to have in back up at the moment for Warnock.

Lad had raw potential with us, could see in some games he had something about him.

To label him as a flop considering he was on a free is exaggerated.

Olhanense FC are currently bottom of the Segunda Liga- the 2nd tier in Portugal
They play at Estádio José Arcanjo in Olhão near Faro
Capacity 11662.
Don't think they will get a full house for his debut.
Looks like they need some defenders too!
