Midtjylland are asking for between 2-3 €million for the former Cardiff striker Sory Kaba….

Didn't play in either half of their first friendly so must want him gone as in the last year of his contract.

I know he did well for us but new manager, new ideas.

After what he did for us I would not be surprised to see him back in Championship with some other team

If Yates is worth 2.5m then Kaba must be worth something.I don't think we are looking to have him back anyway.

Imo if we have any ambition we have to at least try and bring him back if that's the fee. Loan to buy in January offer. That's a snip for a striker that I could see scoring 15-20 goals a season for us.

He scored goals in a poor team last season and with the likes of Robinson and O'Dowda out for most of the 2nd half of last season he'll get better service.

And with Rambo and meite feeding him he'd probably get a few more, really want to see him back, such a good lad to have round the dressing room too, always seemed positive

We payed 5/6 million for gary madine and could' nt even score from penalty spot.

I’m shocked No one has tried to sign him.

Wonder if we could loan then buy in January :occasion5:

Re: Incredible Sory Kaba:

Agreed. Loan to buy in january.
Put him up front and he WILL score.
As already said , scored and looked impressive and a poitive attitude in a struggling city side.
Seems good value 2-3 mill. :bluebird:

Loan with obligation to buy, but then, i don't know if the manager has seen better strikers and is trying to get them,

Re: Incredible Sory Kaba:

I don,'t think we allowed to do a loan with a right to buy in january under the terms of the transfer embargo.

We cannot make any agreement with a commitment to pay in the future

I believe this is correct so it’s a non-starter even if the manager did want him.

Move on ….

Just go into talks for a 6 month loan deal and then happen to mention that this means that a RANDOM club can then come in for him in January

Wink wink

Exactly, there are loopholes that could be manipulated.

January he’d be free to talk to clubs anyways as he’s be running his contract down anyway and we could end up signing him in a pre-contract…. Ways and means

Re: Incredible Sory Kaba:

Are we even in for him? I know he was a great success but that was under lamouchi. Balut may have other ideas

Don't think his over all play is good enough , he couldn't hold the ball up .we need better if we want to go up.

Have to agree. Also, he seemed very unfit / slow so I’m not sure how he’d fit into a high pressing game that the manager seems to like.

Re: Incredible Sory Kaba:

Not sure we need another striker now.

Suspect that Grant will be first choice with Ugbo as back up.

Robinson and Meite can play there also.

Yes meaning kaba in comparison is a snip at a few million rather than the what we paid for the waste of space madine
what a shame we cannot work around this somehow.

Re: Incredible Sory Kaba:

I thought he was worth closer to 10 million to be honest
