Serbian striker Andrej Ilic looks set for a move to Lille.

Cardiff had been credited with interest in the Valarenga striker over the last week or so, with big transfer fees being touted by reporters in Norway.

However, Fabrizio Romain claims that Lille have struck a deal with a package worth around €4m for the striker, who is said to be booked in for a medical at the French club today.

I am sick and tired of other teams hijacking our bloody transfers!!!!

Understand Lille have agreed on deal to sign Andrej Ilić from Vålerenga, transfer fee around €4m package.

Medical tests booked for today.

Final details being sorted on personal terms, deal set to be completed.

If Fabrizio is tweeting it its 99.9% done

Unfortunately we can't compete with Lille and the other teams that have high jacked the players we have been after

What it does show though is that we are aiming for players that are a lot better than what we have now which is good news. Hopefully there is back up plans in place

Disappointing news but we can’t compete with Lille.

We have other options so I expect the club will move on to them.

I fooking hate the French.

C’est la vie

Cardiff never offered any money at all and it was all Media talk .

Bullshit

I fooking hate the French.

In the words of Will from The Inbetweeners: f*cking baguette eating dickhead frog”
