Cardiff agree fee for Ozan Kabak from Galatasaray?

[jon1959]

That's the claim anyway:

Not sure an 18 year old centre back was ever at the top of the shopping list?

[MacAdder]

One for the future?

We aren't going to alter drastically the way we play and let's be honest, we have leaked some pretty awful goals this season so is signing a defender really a surprise.
Whilst we all would like to see a big name striker at the club firing a dozen goals to safety, they will be for squat if we can't keep them out.

I have to admit though that a creative midfielder to partner Camarassa would be my first choice.
Of course this could well be a smokescreen.
I want to read that we've made a signing not hearsay.

[Trigger]

I think in some games our defensive fragility has been more of a problem than our lack of goals. Along with a rb I wouldn't mind seeing a cb signed. He needs to be a player that can come in and compete for a place though.

[the other bob wilson]

Assuming he can settle in this area, I would say that any eighteen year old who has played seventeen times for Galatasaray this season should be good enough to play some first team football for us in the Premier League.

Are there none at youth level?

Bamba is getting on and I can't see him staying if our 'Neil goes.

[Rjk]

As he's only 18 you'd imagine that the majority of that outlay could be easily recouped if we go down and he's not terrible. With a significant upside if he does really well.

He isnt my 15 goals till the end of the season striker though is he

[Pedro de la Rosa]

I can't say I know anything about him but he seems highly rated on Twitter (I know, I know) and has been linked with Man United. He's played Champions League games for this season too, so you'd think he'd be more than good enough for us, especially if he's only 18.

I think after Saturday, everyone is praying that 15 minutes or so of Zohore was proof we can save £20m.

He's no Ethan Ampadu, who was out first choice 18-year old defender

Do these sources just make things up? Yes. We've got no money, or next to no money to spend, so are we going to spend 9m Euros on an 18 year old. About as much chance as spending £20m on that Nantes striker. We'll be left with Zohore and Ward. And probably buy a right back from someone like Doncaster!

I was hoping for Neil as DOF, Bamba as coach into the next few years??

This guy again. Find a hobby mate.

[Gnojek]

He did say that after his nomadic football career, he'd consider settling in Cardiff as he likes it so much. I think he'd make a good coach, very encouraging and enthusiastic, but not averse to losing it when he's not happy.
