Cardiff City linked again with Sheffield Wednesday star in white-hot form
Wednesday 28th April 2021
By Glen Williams
The Bluebirds have been linked with the forward in the past and it looks as though they have registered interest again with the Owls battling relegation
Cardiff City are reportedly interested once again in landing Sheffield Wednesday playmaker Josh Windass.
The Bluebirds are set to lose Harry Wilson at the end of the season, while quite what the future holds for both Jonny Williams, whose contract expires this summer, and Lee Tomlin remains to be seen.
It is thought Mick McCarthy wants to add firepower in attack this summer, with a glut of strikers having been linked with the Bluebirds in recent months.
However, it appears he might well be keen on adding some creativity, too, with Football Insider claiming the Welsh capital city club are interested in Windass, along with Middlesbrough, Stoke City and Ipswich Town.
The Owls are delicately poised at the bottom end of the Championship, sitting in 23rd position, four points adrift of safety with two games left to play and with Rotherham holding two games in hand over their rivals just above them.
Should they drop to the third tier, it is expected that Wednesday could lose a slice of their top players who are keen to still play Championship football and Windass could well fall into that bracket.
The 27-year-old has been linked many times in the past. It was first reported that Neil Warnock was keen on signing him in 2018 while he was at Rangers, before he was the subject of more transfer speculation last January. Of course, the deal never came to fruition.
He made the move to Hillsborough after suffering relegation with Wigan last year and he might be in line to reunite with his old partner Kieffer Moore should the Owls face the drop this year.
His record stands up, too, and he is finishing the season in white-hot form, despite Sheffield Wednesday's fortunes failing to take a dramatic upturn, save that 5-0 demolition of Cardiff City.
Windass has six goals and four assists in his last 13 outings for the Yorkshire club and is firmly putting himself in the shop window ahead of the summer transfer window.
Cardiff will doubtless be looking to mount a more sustained promotion challenge next term and adding a player with a proven goalscoring and assist record will certainly help to that end.
The attacking midfielder is thought to have one more year left on his contract.

How badly managed have Sheff Wednesday been this year? Some of the players they have and to be where they are.
Bonkers.

He is a good player at this level not near premier standard though. Would fit in with the profile of the sort of player MM likes. Hard working grafter who has been around a bit. If we could get him cheap from Wednesday as they have been relegated (and they will be) would not be a bad signing. Probably won't get him cheap though as there will be competit to sign him.

If nothing else it would stop him scoring against us .....

Some players we are just linked to every year, kind of end up hoping we sign them just to stop it.

Josh, again!
Just buy him already.
He would though add a lot of guile and pace to our midfield.

I agree. Patterson, Bannam, Windass, Reach, Rhodes to name just a few. The may have had 6 points deducted but how on earth have they struggled. Be nice if they beat Derby on Saturday.

Completely average player, in my opinion would offer very little to our team if we did sign him
