Cardiff City are stepping up their hunt to find a successor for Sabri Lamouchi, but have played down reports Sol Bamba has been offered the job.
Lamouchi was told he would not be kept on after his current contract finished, meaning City are, once again, searching for a new man to take the reins next season.
Reports from London on Wednesday morning claimed Lamouchi's assistant Bamba had been offered the manager's post. Cardiff, however, have distanced themselves from the reports as their manager search continues.
