Incomings CCFC this January 2022
We've heard it for some time now, but Cardiff's piggy bank is empty. The days of splashing serious fees on players appear to be behind us as long as the Bluebirds continue to ply their trade in the second tier.
Steve Morison has NO budget to work with and has to make do with what he has or bring in more players from the Under 23 squad or bring back some of the players out on loan.
Cardiff need a central midfielder, someone who offers something different to the seemingly one-paced midfield Cardiff currently have. They also need a different option up front. With Mark Harris and Isaak Davies preferred on the wings, if Cardiff can get someone to rival James Collins for that second striker spot, perhaps more of a poacher or a player to get in behind the lines, that would be good business.
The only real way Cardiff could spend in January, one would think, is if they got a massive old sum for someone like Kieffer Moore, but even then it seems unlikely and if they did they probably would not spend any of it and City would if lost their main player.
There might be one or two players with just months left on their contracts, like Jonny Williams last January, who represent cheap options, but actually did hardly anything to improve the squad and was injury prone.
James Collins was cheap and free, but are they cheap in the long run, 1 goal in 21 games.
Finding gems who cost next to nothing is an almost impossible task at times.
Could they bring in any loan players ?
Only if Cardiff don’t have to pay towards their wages and due to vivid I can’t see clubs doing that.
