3 EXITS WE MIGHT EXPECT TO SEE AT CARDIFF IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS
By Luke Phelps


In his first transfer window as Cardiff boss, Harris will have plenty of work to do.

It’ll be mostly outgoings with the ex-Millwall manager claiming earlier in the season that he needs to reduce the wage bill before he can bring anyone in, and we could see a fair few depart the Cardiff City Stadium next month.

Harris hasn’t changed all that much in his time in charge but he has made a few tweaks, and a few players have fallen out-of-favour under the 42-year-old.

Tidying up the wage bill after Neil Warnock’s antics, there are several players who could either depart the club permanently or on-loan for the second-half of the season, and here we take a look at three players who we expect to leave in January:

If there’s anything that Cardiff have too many of, it’s strikers. Harris has eight first-team strikers at his disposal and he’ll no doubt start there as he tries to trim the club’s wage bill.


Omar Bogle

One forward who’s not been in contention this season is Bogle. He’s not yet started a game under Harris and has been left out of the last five match day squads – with only one goal in 11 Championship appearances this season, the 27-year-old could well be on his way next month.


Isaac Vassell

This is another striker who’s fallen right down the pecking order this season – Vassell has only featured twice for the first-team in the Championship this season, having been involved with the development squad too.

His style of play is similar to Bogle’s in that he’s a pacey forward who likes to run in-behind defences, but Harris has no place for that in his Cardiff team and Vassell could well join Bogle in leaving the club next month – a loan-move is also a possibility for Vassell but at 26-years-old, it might not be that beneficial.


Gavin Whyte

Whyte got his first appearance for Harris when he came off the bench in his side’s 3-3 draw at Leeds United earlier in the month. That was his 15th Championship appearance of the season having been a prominent figure under Warnock, but not so much under Harris.

He kept a place on the bench against Preston over the weekend but didn’t come off it and now with January approaching, the 23-year-old’s future is at a crossroads.

He’s a sprightly young player and so a permanent move away from Cardiff is unlikely, but a loan-move for the second-half of the season is more than probable.

Possible or expect?

These articles are futile.

Exits rely on another club wanting one of our players and matching existing salary or club taking a hit and player being wiling. And in Vassells case him being fit.

The notion that someone not featuring can simply be moved on is misleading and serves no purpose.

Maybe the journo can tell us how many enquiries to take Jazz on loan the club has beaten off whilst he has been out of first team action?

I see it as 'possible' but with little to actually back it up other than some journalistic guess work

Having said that, I could se the value in the first two leaving but not so much Whyte, who I think could develop into a pretty decent player for us

Someone who just looks at stats but knows nothing about Cardiff obviously. Vassell "fallen down the pecking order!" He hasn't been in it since August due to long term. Utter garbage

Might be right about Bogle but the other 2 have been injured

Welcome to the biannual groundless rumour mill.

Vassell?

Might as well add Connelly given they’re both a pair of permanent sick notes.

Until they’re in a city shirt doing the :ayatollah: don’t believe a word of this guff.

Oxford would have him back in a heartbeat.

He’s what we need. He’s more consistent than NML.

Would agree about Bogle but Whyte ??!!!
Been injured and is raw but one for the future so hope we hold on to him.
Was inconsistent when he played but needs experience of playing at higher level in championship.
Vassell moving on wouldn’t be a worry ....think if we did move 3 out it wouldn’t be enough

I agree. Sending Whyte out on loan would be plain stupid. He's got talent...we are not getting the best out of him. That's Harris' job to sort that out. The lad can play wide, more central and alongside a main striker.
