The Daily Mirror is carrying a story at Cardiff City have or is about to have a new offer for star midfielder Peter Whittingham. Can’t say I am surprised he is a popular target, but Cardiff is determined to keep their man.
During the reign of the former Chairman and manager, Peter Ridsdale and Dave Jones were forever telling anyone who would listen at every player had a price.
Today’s entrants into the race and to test the resolve of the Bluebirds top brass is West Brom Albion with an improved offer to the reported £3 million mention during a phone conversation between Cardiff and West Ham. They have step in with a £4 million bid according to the Mirror, but likely to be turned down out of hand.
Bluebird’s boss Malky MacKay has stated on numerous occasions at Whittingham is a major part of his plans and the player himself said he would not be seeking a transfer any time soon. To cement his position he signed a contract extension back in October keeping him at the Cardiff City Stadium until 2013.
