Steve Morison: ‘ New Striker ‘
Mon Aug 01, 2022 7:18 am
Cardiff boss Steve Morison will this week step up his bid to land two new strikers, for seven months Morison has been looking for new strikers for the Bluebirds.
The Bluebirds lacked a cutting edge in the final third versus Norwich and Morison is looking to get one new goal ace on loan and another potentially on a permanent deal.
Cardiff had no more than two shots on goal on Saturday and even though they played some very attractive football the final ball needs to be there.
Various targets have been approached and the Cardiff manager is waiting on responses from those men and their clubs.
Nathan Blake hinted that Andy Carrol was coming as he is a free agent, but since City have said that’s a no.
The 33-year-old is a free agent after leaving West Brom earlier this summer, having previously been with Reading on a short-term deal.
Speaking on BBC Radio Wales after the win over Norwich , Blake said: "My birdies tell me, I heard that there could be a new signing in Andy Carroll as a striker. Pay as you play. That's what I'm hearing.
"I cant tell you who my source is. It's a very good source."
City Chairman Dalman said they would back Morison if the right striker became available and the committee all agreed on it.
For now the search continues, a striker could become the difference of City becoming a play off contender or a mid table team.
