CARDIFF BOSS MALKY MACKAY EYEING MOVE FOR MAN UTD STRIKER

Cardiff City boss Malky Mackay is looking at the possibility of a loan move for Manchester United’s Federico Macheda.

Mackay, who nurtured United’s promising midfield talent Tom Cleverley during a loan spell at former club Watford, said: “We are fishing in a small pond in terms of who can come in on loan and affect the team. I want a striker who can come in and hit the ground running into the first team or at least force his way onto the bench.

“United, like many others, are a club who are still in the Carling Cup and you saw the other night that they are playing a lot of their talented youngsters.

“Things change at Premier League clubs on a daily and weekly basis in terms of when the youngsters are allowed out.”

Wikipedia says he is 6 feet tall, so he might fit the bill, so to speak.

Malky outright denied this in post match interview though.

Yup BBC interview he looked puzzled and said he knew nothing about it.
