Cardiff City could fork out a transfer fee for the first time in 18 months as chairman Mehmet Dalman revealed the club are in talks to purchase a striker.
It is no secret that Cardiff want to bolster their options up front, with Max Watters and Mark Harris the only two fit strikers Steve Morison currently has at his disposal going into the new season. While the Bluebirds have strengthened in literally every other position this summer, no striker has come through the door.
City have made 13 signings already but that number is set to rise. And Dalman has revealed his ideal scenario would be to sign one striker permanently and another on loan. He also added that the permanent purchase would cost Cardiff a transfer fee, the first time they would have forked out significant money for a player since signing Watters himself from Crawley Town in January 2021.
