It has already been reported that Cardiff are interested in signing Sam Johnstone from Manchester United. He is currently on loan at Aston Villa and while they would want to make the deal permanent, it might not be possible they don’t beat Fulham in the Sky Bet Championship play-off final and get promoted to the Premier League. But with the deal for Johnstone being in flux, Cardiff are looking at other potential targets.
Cardiff City linked with move for Swansea City goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski – reports
Fabianski reportedly wants to leave the Swans this summer

Cardiff City are keen on bringing in Swansea City goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski as the Bluebirds look to bolster their squad ahead of next season.
Neil Warnock will be hoping to add more strength to his squad before August as the Bluebirds prepare for their first season back in the top flight.
Neil Etheridge had the number one jersey throughout the Bluebirds’ Championship campaign, but Warnock is reportedly looking elsewhere to challenge Etheridge.
Fabianski reportedly wants to leave the Swans this summer after suffering relegation from the Premier League.
According to The Sun, the Bluebirds have expressed an interest in landing the experienced stopper who suffered relegation with the Swans last weekend.
Fabianski has become a fan favourite since making the switch to the Liberty Stadium in 2007, though he is set to depart the club this summer.
The Poland international featured in each of the Swans’ 38 Premier League games last season, keeping nine clean sheets in the process.
The Bluebirds are, however, reportedly facing competition from a host of Premier League clubs in the race to land the experienced goalkeeper.
The Guardian also suggest Watford, Newcastle, Crystal Palace and West Ham are all said to be in interested in his services.
A deal would be an unlikely one for Neil Warnock to pull off as the Swans would not be keen on selling their star man to their close rivals, but Fabianski could make the switch if the Bluebirds offer the right price.
