Tom Sang 23 years old next month has made 12 appearances for the Bluebirds in 3 seasons.

STEVE MORISON:


"I’ve had the conversation with Tom, I personally don’t see him as a wing back," Morison said in January. "I see him as a midfield option. That’s where he has got to fight for his place along with the other midfielders. That’s my opinion.

"At the minute, my opinion is that I didn’t see him as direct competition for Perry, Joel (Bagan) or Ryan Giles when he was here. So, he is in the mix with the other five or six centre midfielders. It’s a tough place to be because there’s a lot of good players there."

In light of that, Sang sought game-time elsewhere as he looked to prove his quality as a right-back and convince Morison it was the best place for him. All nine of his appearances for the Scottish club came as a wing-back, including once on the left-hand side. Morison will have looked forensically at Sang's numbers following each match and will have a far clearer idea of whether he thinks he will be a wing-back or needs to battle for that spot in midfield.

Sang 23 years old next month, signed a contract extension until the end of 2023, does seem flexible, though, so if he and Morison do not see eye to eye on his favoured position, there is hope there could be some wiggle room so that he does play a part next term.

GAVIN WHYTE:

Aged 26


Then there is Gavin Whyte, a player whose Cardiff City career has stalled over the last 18 months. Well, it struggled to kickstart after Neil Warnock left, truth be told. The Northern Irishman has enjoyed a stellar season with Oxford United in League One, narrowly missing out on the play-offs.

The winger played his part, too, registering 10 assists and a goal while playing on the right, left, centrally and up front for the Us. Some believe he has found his level in League One, while others believe he has not been given a fair crack of the whip in the Welsh capital.

Morison will want to have the option of playing with wingers next season, hence the arrival of Ollie Tanner, but it is unrealistic to expect an 18-year-old plucked from non-League to make a sustained impact during what will doubtless be a brutal maiden campaign in the Championship.



Whyte, meanwhile, is 26, slap-bang in the middle of that age range Morison is trying to recruit, has many League One and even Championship games under his belt and is a crucial part of Northern Ireland's international set-up, scoring three goals in 20 appearances for his country.

Cardiff wanted more of an output from him in the final third and it is more than fair to say he has improved on that front. Whether he has the quality to make a real difference at Championship level is still the big question mark and no doubt Morison and his staff will be mulling over.

The player himself, who is also contracted until 2023, might even think it best for a fresh start elsewhere. The last time Whyte was asked about his future was in March, when he kept his cards extremely close to his chest, saying: "I haven’t really thought about it too much, I’m just taking it in the moment.

“I can’t really look too far ahead, I love being here and I just want to play as many games as I can until the end of the season. The reason I came here is because I loved it so much when I was first here. It’s a great club, great people, great fans and I felt at home when I first came here.”

There will, of course, be many moving parts for Cardiff in this transfer window. The futures of both Sang and Whyte might seem small fry at the minute, with so many other plates currently being spun, but they are nevertheless big calls which will have to be made shortly.

Have the club announced which players we’re keeping and which ones we’re letting go? I thought I read the retained list was supposed to come out on the 21st but can’t find anything about it.

The club had to provide the list to the EFL by 21st May but nearly all clubs then release them publicly.

Or we wait until the EFL publish them by the 2nd Sat in June.

Can understand why Hudderfiels and Forest haven't released theirs but we have no reason to hold off, quite unusual.
