Erol Bulut:

“We are very close to two new signings.”

"Many players are on our target," he said. "It doesn’t say only we are looking for those players. When we make offers, it doesn’t mean next day he is here. Other clubs are also talking to those players. It’s not so easy. It’s economics, what you can do and in this we have a little bit of problems. We try hard to get some players in. I hope in a few days we can finalise.”

On to January transfers - what can you tell us about Umut Nayir? Have you made an approach?

Bulut: “You mentioned the striker. Many players are in our target. It doesn’t say only we are looking for those players. When we make offers, it doesn’t mean next day he is here. Other teams are looking at those players. It’s not so easy. It’s economics. We try hard to get some players in. I hope in a few days we can finalise.”

Both players were brought in by Bulut as loan players last Summer on high wages.

Eli King is also set to be sent back out on loan.

Next to join them and off the wage bill will be Arsenal keeper Alex Runarsson .


Updated:


Ugbo has Signed a termination agreement with Cardiff before it was ratified by his parent club, French outfit Troyes. The Canada international is now free to move to Sheffield Wednesday.


Cardiff City striker Ike Ugbo is poised to join Sheffield Wednesday.

The Bluebirds striker scored three goals and provided one assist in his first four games in a City shirt, with supporters hailing it an inspired signing. Admittedly, the goals were from close range, but you have to be in the position to score them. His lay-off for Josh Bowler's goal on the opening weekend against Leeds United also showed his composure, too.

City will once again reduce the wage bill.

City want Kieffer Moore from Bournemouth and have held talks with the Premier League club, while reports in Turkey gather at a pace regarding Fenerbahce and Turkey front man Umut Nayir.

Cardiff City are close to two new signings and are interested in Fenerbahce striker Umut Nayir, manager Erol Bulut has revealed.

The Bluebirds are keen to bolster their ranks this month, with a particular interest in adding to their forward ranks before the deadline on February 1. Sign up to our daily Cardiff City newsletter here.

Turkey striker Nayir has been out of favour at Fenerbahce this season after a prolific campaign in front of goal for Eyupspor last term. And Bulut admitted he is one name on the list.

Ebou Adams was involved in a scary incident on international duty yesterday - have you heard from him?

Bulut:"We know that he is OK and all the team is OK. We could expect more from the Gambian team to inform the club, this we did have."

Stability?

“If I am here or not next season.”

Bulut:"We have been in football for years.”

“ You have to make a plan for the club to be much, much better. Pre-season I was here , and we have to plan for next season as well.”

“So right now I cannot make any plans for the new season. My plans can only be until the end of the season, for January to make good transfers until the end of the season. It is difficult to speak about this. I don’t know if I’m here or not."

Wouldn’t blame him. He could find another club at this level no problem.

Who's doing the work regarding sighning players tan or dalman? Consensus dalman is so why is bullet referring to tan regarding backing.....

Who's doing the work regarding sighning players tan or dalman? Consensus dalman is so why is bullet referring to tan regarding backing.....

Presumably it's because it is tan that will be putting the money up or releasing any funds that we have for players.
Think dalman will do all leg work and finalise for tan to sign off on?

Bulut has done his bit by moving out players, now he needs to be backed to bring in the players he wants.

Allan,

Dalman is over seeing all of it, that’s why he has left his home in Monaco for January and is between London and Cardiff to work with Bulut.

But has already sent 3 of the players he brought in back to get the wage bill down.


Bulut has asked Tan for money to buy players.

Tan has agreed this season to take back seat and let Dalman be more involved.

Correct Ned,

We can’t keep relying mainly on loans and freebies.

Three loans have already failed in the last 5mths.

And when they’ve done well in the past, guess what their clubs recall them.

Agree 100%, we need good permanent signings.

Thanks for bit of clarity ... presumably bullet references to tan is out fact he's owner but dalman is in charge of negotiating sighnings ... always believe there are things bubbling below surface and will suddenly appear when completed.

Agreed on all accounts Allan.

YES SLOPER ROAD WILL BE CLOSED TO CARDIFF FANS after the game on Saturday for 45 minutes.

Erol Bulut:


Rivalry between Cardiff and Leeds - a special atmosphere?

Bulut: “These kind of games for players are always good. Players in games try to give more percent to show themselves and to have the win. To try to win the game. It’s a special game. Is it Leicester, Southampton, Leeds, these kind of teams, for players, are always good.”

We all know there will be some deals done but bulut did say as he see's it and as fans do EARLY
early define early
in my book that means the first 2 weeks of January otherwise its late signings

I'm certainly not expecting any new signings before the Leeds game. In reality these things take time and if some of the players are coming from abroad it could be nearer the end of the month before any transfers are completed.

I will be surprised if Tan does not back the manager considering we signed all loans and freebies during the previous window and we've had a not inconsiderable insurance payout since.
