I wonder if it's a case of staying in the game until deadline day, at which point the fee might be different
It's going to take him a month or two to get up to speed but a very good player at championship level with still room to grow if we get an unlikely promotion.
We're told we're looking at two players and could still end up with no one. Trouble is, I think we're two players away from being as good as last year when, despite finishing fifth, we squeezed into the play-offs. Are the standards of last year good enough to get back into play-offs this year?

This dubious link suggests he's on 60k - I can't imagine we'd be prepared to pay that much.
It's probably not correct though is it?
Sky Sports breaking news headline is Liverpool agree 1.2m loan move with Cardiff.
I'm tired of worrying or thinking too much in terms of the clubs finances, do enough of that balancing at home. So as a supporter of Cardiff City I think that would be a terrific signing, just what we need.
One of the most exciting signings we've had in a while if it comes off.
Yeah around £4m permanent fair price. Id have been happy with that.
We paid £3 million for Vydra on loan for a season a few years ago. Liverpool value Wilson at £15 million plus having turned down a £12 million bid from Burnley. I think this is a very decent deal for Cardiff and would have felt that way if Reading had signed him. He is worth the loan fee.
Think he will be perfect playing off just behind big Kieffer Moore 👍
Done deal
Should keep us away from the relegation trap door...🤗🤗
Hell of a statement by the club. So happy with this.
BLOODY HELL.....
Buzzing with this - great signing , finally some ambition from the board. Would love another attacker in
I just can’t get exited until it’s confirmed. There are a lot of clubs on the drive from Liverpool to Cardiff
Don't think we needed a 3rd thread to talk about Wilson signing.:wave:
Just been confirmed on BBC News 👌
It compares favourably to other deals in recent years.
Take Flint for example...
Signed for £4m in the summer of 2019 on a 3 year contract. £1m/year salary cost. So total cost £7m... £2.3m a year.
Total cost of Wilson deal £1.2m plus 7 months salary...£2.3m?!
One gives us a chance at promotion, the other doesn't.
He's worth at least 12m to Burnley, we've paid a 10th of that. We don't get any resale value but we get a terrific player and apparently we have first option to sign him if we go up. I mean, we won't go up but still. It is a tremendously exciting deal, he got 15 in 41 for Derby. Nice to have another welsh player, too.
