The Bluebirds travel to Stamford Bridge in the Premier League on Saturday, and Warnock says he will speak to Chelsea officials about the prospect of signing Ampadu in the next transfer window.

Ampadu, who turned 18 on Friday, has yet to play for Chelsea this season but shone for Wales against the Republic of Ireland and Denmark during the recent international break.

Cardiff City manager Neil Warnock has confirmed he wants to sign Chelsea teenager Ethan Ampadu on loan.

Ampadu featured throughout pre-season for the Blues but is yet to make a competitive appearance for Maurizio Sarri's side this term.
But the defender, who can also play in midfield, thrived as Wales thrashed Republic of Ireland 4-1 in the Nations League during the international break.

Ampadu was involved in two of the goals on his third international appearance, leading Wales manager Ryan Giggs to predict a "magnificent" future for the teenager.
And Warnock, whose Cardiff side travel to Chelsea in the Premier League on Saturday, hopes to hold talks over a loan for Ampadu.

"They should loan him to us," said Warnock of the versatile Ampadu, who turned 18 on Friday.

"What I like about him is that he is so confident. He plays the game simple. He will have to quicken up a little bit when he gets higher up because he will get caught.

"He will get that by playing games. When you play with the type of players he has to play with it does help with his education.

"They have good players who could do with playing - and if they could get a game in the Premier League I think it would help their development.

"I will be speaking to somebody at Chelsea about one or two things."

Might have been a good idea not to say that they "lacked class" over the Abraham loan deal then.

Hardly going to make them keen to deal with us in January.

Cardiff City manager Neil Warnock says he plans to talk to Chelsea about signing Wales international Ethan Ampadu on loan in January.

Ampadu, 18, has only made one Premier League appearance as a substitute since joining from Exeter City in 2017.

Former Chelsea winger Pat Nevin says he should go out on loan in January if he is not getting enough game time.

"They should loan him to us," said Warnock, whose side travel to Stamford Bridge on Saturday (15:00 BST).

Ampadu made his Exeter debut as a 15-year old before his transfer to Chelsea, and has featured seven times for the first team, the majority in cup games.
Warnock also said he tried to sign Chelsea's England striker Tammy Abraham. while the Cardiff manager also revealed he was looking at Joe Allen in the summer before the Welsh midfielder signed an extended contract with Stoke City.

Former Scotland international Nevin, who spent five years at Chelsea, thinks Ampadu could feature regularly for Maurizio Sarri's side if they progress in cup competitions.

"It's so tough to get into the Chelsea first team," Nevin told BBC Radio Wales' Good Morning Wales.

"He might just get enough games this season - maybe 20 or so - and they might mostly come in the Europa League if Chelsea go all the way, and some cup games as well.

"If he's not in the Chelsea first team fairly regularly by January, for his sake, Chelsea's sake and Wales' sake, get him out on loan and make sure he plays in the Premier League every week.

"It doesn't matter where he goes - he'll be good enough.

"There's lots of players who have got good quality but his attitude is stunning.

"He will put the effort in everywhere - it doesn't matter if it's centre half or centre midfield. He's got such bravery about him."
