Salech drops hint about future

Sun May 04, 2025 7:02 pm

Yousef Salech ended his season on a personal high note with two goals in the defeat at Norwich City.

The striker has been a ray of light since signing for the club in the January window, netting nine goals in 22 outings for the Bluebirds, leading many supporters to believe that he will be vital to City's chances of achieving promotion next term.

However, his exploits in front of goal are likely to have drawn eyes from teams across the Championship, with supporters fearing that his form in front of goal might have alerted teams to a potential transfer.

But Salech has given fans some optimism with his post on social media after the final game at Carrow Road, writing: "A big thanks for your support throughout the season Bluebirds. We will bounce back."

Fans appeared hopeful that final sentence was a hint over his future, suggesting he would be part of the attempt to bounce straight back up from the third tier at the first time of asking.

Interim manager Aaron Ramsey has told supporters to brace for interest, but insisted the club should look to keep hold of players of Salech's calibre.

"There is always going to be interest in players of his quality, that's part of football. He showed today what he's capable of doing and he's only going to get better as well," Ramsey said.

"Some of the goals he's scored and what he does off the ball, that's not to be sniffed at. He's a serious player who is only going to get better.

"We always want to keep our best players and he's no different. There's a few things that need to be addressed over the next few weeks and that will give clarity to players, fans and everyone."

Ffs he's been in country 3 months if his advisers have any sense they'll tell him to stay because if he sets div 1 alight as we suspect he might bigger clubs than championship will come calling?
Ps if does sell a 50% sell on clause

This summer is going to be the most ‘interesting’ one for quite a few years I think.

I get the feeling he’ll stay.
