Both players are coming to Cardiff on Monday for Talks with Erol Bulut and will be at the Stadium on Tuesday night to watch Cardiff City v TNS.

One is a temporary contract and the other a loan signing:


Apparently Cardiff working hard on two deals to sign Chidera Ejuke on a 1-year temporary contract. FIFA allowed the winger to suspend his contract at CSKA Moscow last year due Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and he signed with Hertha BSC. Cardiff hoping similar can be done again.

Chidera Ejuke aged 25 Nigerian played for their U17’s , but yet to make the International first team.

2019–2020 Heerenveen 25 (9)

The other player is Striker Iké Dominique Ugbo aged 24 was a Chelsea Accademy player but never made the first team.
Currently with French League 2 club Troyes who are happy to send him out on loan next season. In recent seasons Ugbo had a season on loan at Scunthorpe United.


Ike Ugbo, who would be a loan signing from French club Troyes, is rumoured to be one, while the other could potentially be Dimitrios Goutas, who has previously represented Vincent Tan-owned club Kortrijk. He currently plays in Turkey for Sivasspor.

if they are the watch this space signings then most will be disappointed

Hopefully I’m wrong. But his scoring rate is awful at the higher levels. Hopefully he turns out like kaba.

Surely these are not the ones dalhman has got us all exited about if so
"deflated"

Hopefully I’m wrong. But his scoring rate is awful at the higher levels. Hopefully he turns out like kaba.

Not bad on Belgium tho

Ejuke , twenty games and no goals for Hertha Berlin last season, who finished rock bottom of the Bundesliga and were truly terrible. It’s doubtful he’s way too good for the Championship on that evidence. He seemed to be doing better in the Russian league though.

Hopefully Ramsey joins them otherwise Dalmans conned us all again

Ugbo has recently been in Ligue 1 in France, which is a higher level than the Championship. He was also in a struggling Troyes team. He didn't score many last season but like I say, that's at a higher level. A move to the Championship where he's playing regularly could get him scoring goals again.

Ejuke was also at a higher level last season, with Hertha in the Bundesliga. Looks like he has a lot of pace which we'll need.

Could be two good signings and I'll fully support them if they do sign.

You’re right wez that is his bright point. Hopefully he can bring that form with him.

The Bluebirds are believed to have held interest in Ugbo from last January when they brought in Sory Kaba and Connor Wickham instead.

The Cardiff City Committee tried for Ugbo in January, but were unable to get him, this time around they seem to have got him.

Our recruitment of unknowns has been quite decent recently its the knowns that have been a bit dodgy, Sawyers, Ojo and Wickham.

looking forward to seeing them in action

Question: Is there any chance that we can get
Sory Kaba back on loan ? Any one know his status and availability for Cardiff City ?

Dalman been conning us for years tbh if he signs or not the blokes a paid liar imo

Ejuke , twenty games and no goals for Hertha Berlin last season, who finished rock bottom of the Bundesliga and were truly terrible. It’s doubtful he’s way too good for the Championship on that evidence. He seemed to be doing better in the Russian league though.

You can't properly judge a player like that.Bobby Reid struggled for us yet looks decent in that Fulham side and come to think of it so does Wilson.And Glatzel,couldn't score in a brothel for us and look at him now.

These can't be "the" exciting players. The winger looks ok... On you tube, so did Tanner.

If the striker is so exciting why has the French league 2 team allowed him to go on loan for free. Sounds like something we'd do with Max Watters. Hopefully I'm proved wrong.

Players going elsewhere!!!!

Try sell some more season tickets quick !! It's all bullshit , this club is screwed.

Not sure on the striker never really heard of him but the winger ejuke is a tidy footballer. Very quick and very direct and will be a definite upgrade on what we already have.

Just a few more days then - Mr D

It’s happening

If these players are so exciting why has the second tier french team let the striker go out on loan or the outstanding winger who got relegated last term been picked up by another club in Europe...

What's happening mate?

Why did Midtjylland let Kaba out on loan?

Why did West Brom let Kipre out on loan?
