Cardiff linked with Paddy Lane

Cardiff City are reportedly tracking Northern Ireland international Paddy Lane.

The 21-year-old Fleetwood Town midfielder, was being watched by West Ham towards the end of last season after a campaign in which he scored five goals in 39 games, winning the League One Young Player of the Season award in the process.

A versatile player, the youngster, who has five senior caps for his country, has been deployed at central midfield, attacking midfield, left wing and right wing during his time with the League One club. He has also operated as a wing-back, too.
Lane has one year left on his contract with Fleetwood, with The Mirror claiming Cardiff City and Hearts are keen on landing his signature. The report adds, however, that he is valued at £1m, which might price Cardiff out of a deal.

Lane joined Fleetwood from seventh-tier Hyde last summer.

Versatile player and young. Young player of the year in league 1 sounds OK to me. Good we are looking at young players with potential. I've never seen him play but read up on him sounds good.
