Millwall eye Cardiff summer target
Millwall are reportedly eyeing up a January swoop for Middlesbrough striker and Cardiff City summer transfer target Uche Ikpeazu, Cardiff had no money so looked else where and signed free agent James Collins.
The striker was on the Bluebirds' radar in the summer after impressing for Wycombe Wanderers against Cardiff twice last season.
However, Mick McCarthy opted to add only James Collins to the club's strike force in the summer Windows as the budget he had stretched no further.
Ikpeazu started the season well under Neil Warnock but has seemingly fallen out of favour up on Teesside, with new boss Chris Wilder reportedly prepared to let him go in the new year.
Now, The Sun reporter Alan Nixon has claimed Millwall could be interested in a loan deal or even signing the player permanently if the price was right.
Boro's January pursuit of Folarin Balogun of Arsenal might have a bearing on proceedings, too.
