Sneaky Warnock: Cardiff manager holds meeting with agent and target after game on Tuesday

Thursday 10th January 2019

By Tom Coast

By now, if you’re a Cardiff fan, you’ll probably know who Emiliano Sala is and why Neil Warnock is interested in him.

Just in case you don’t, just know he’s scored 12 goals in 17 league games for Nantes, and would probably solve a few goalscoring issues at Cardiff City Stadium.

However, there’s the slight issue that the Argentinean striker isn’t all that thrilled about joining a Premier League team currently in a relegation battle, but a France Football journalist on Monday suggested money could really talk to him if it came down to it.

Nantes would be quite happy to sell, as €25m would be a massive amount of money for them, but, as things stand, there hasn’t been any progression in talks.

But, and it’s a big one, it seems Cardiff aren’t ready to give up as Ouest-France claim both Warnock and Willie McKay, a famous English agent, were spotted at Stade de la Beaujoire on Tuesday for Nantes 2-0 win over Montpellier.

After the game, the pair are said to have met with the 28-year-old, which the Ligue 1 side weren’t aware of at the time (they will be now, however).

Don't spend this amount of money on a player who does not want to come here. I hate him already and I have never seen him play. I hate players who disrespect our club.

Seems like his heart is not in this, best move on to another target.

If he doesn't sign in next 24 hours move on, think it would be best for all parties to do that.

Gotta say thats a parochial attitude in the extreme and basing hatred on hearsay is ignorant.Neil has got a couple of deals over the line by giving it the personal touch,Arter being one of them Camarasa another.We may very well be a total alien concept to the lad.He may think better now he's met his potential boss.You don't just walk into something you know nothing about.

when Sean Morrison turned down S Wednesday and Bennett turned down Fulham they did not do it to disrespect those clubs , they did it because they are happy here and respected our club more...this is not a difficult one.

So let me get this right

We have 25 million and we are chasing a 28 year old that has expressed he does not want to join.

What is wrong with this club Somone please break down the idiotic sense they are thinking

You likely haven't got it right. So much misinformation flying around we probably don't know what is really going on.

I think if the club had historically taken this stance there are a lot of your favourite players youd never have seen in Cardiff colours...this paricular attempted transfer has gone on a bit I agree but we do not know how long others have taken to get over the line..?

Yes but he hasn't said 'he doesn't want to join'. If anything it might be that he needs convincing that it is a good move for him. We shouldn't write things off without knowing for sure.

I have my doubts about this one not guna lie. A club record fee comes with alot of pressure. Is he really that good?

He's never scored more than 12 goals in an entire season in league 1. He's never had more than 4 assists. And im sure i read that almost half his goals this season have been from the spot.

He is also 29 this year, this is a lot of money for a player that in reality will have to be written off, as he will have very little re sale value.
