Cardiff City transfer target Chidera Ejuke has had his CSKA Moscow contract suspended as he seeks a temporary move away from the Russian club in a major boost for the Bluebirds.
FIFA granted Ejuke, 25, a temporary contract freeze last year due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which allowed him to go to Hertha BSC for a season. WalesOnline reported last week the Bluebirds are interested in snapping him up on a similar deal this time around.
However, the red tape which appeared to be a potential stumbling block holding up the deal up looks to have lifted, according to Russian media outlet PFC-CSKA.
