Here's your round-up of all the latest Cardiff City news for Saturday, July 8.
Chester says Rambo still has one big move left in him
James Chester says Aaron Ramsey still has the ability to land one more big move - but insists the Wales skipper may yet feel the time is right to come home and sign for Cardiff City.
Ramsey has already held talks with his boyhood club to discuss a possible return this summer, and has made no secret of the fact that he is keen to be closer to his young family.
The 32-year-old has also admitted he'd like to return to Cardiff one day, and his former Wales team-mate Chester believes the pull of coming home could well swing matters in City's favour.
"Speaking from my own experience. Now, as you get older and you have family of your own, you probably think your motivations can change," Chester told BBC Radio Wales.
"I think if Aaron was to go to Cardiff, it would probably be the motivation to be living at home and closer to his family.
"Your motivations as a young professional are completely different to when you start getting a bit older in your career and I think certainly when you've got young children you want to spend as much time with them as possible.
"Aaron's done incredible things in the game and he's perhaps wondering if the time's right to maybe go back home and spend more time with his family and play football for his home town club."
The decision to step down to the Championship would perhaps come as a surprise to some, and Chester admits Ramsey could yet decide he has one last big move left in him.
"I think Aaron's still got another big club and big opportunities in him at 32," he added. "You could perhaps argue if he was to make the same decision again at 34, Cardiff would probably still welcome him home.
"I think that's probably a consideration he has to make. Whether he wants to spend more time with his family now or whether he wants to have one more shot at playing at the highest level."
Ex-CSKA coach unsurprised by Ejuke contract move
Former CSKA Moscow goalkeeping coach Vyacheslav Chanov says the Russian club shouldn't be surprised by Chidera Ejuke's decision to suspend his contract, amid interest from Cardiff City.
The Nigerian international has taken advantage of a FIFA amendment in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which allows him to freeze his contract with the club until the end of the season.
He previously took advantage of the new rule last term, and subsequently joined Hertha Berlin on a season-long loan. Cardiff could well be hoping to sign him on a similar arrangement.
Iceland international Arnor Sigurdsson has also taken similar action in this window, and Chanov insists neither move has come as surprise to CSKA.
"It seems to me that they are not so much to blame as, I would say, politics. They were also allowed to suspend contracts. I think that it does not depend on them," Chanov told sports.ru.
"We need to see who will appear in their places. It is possible that people already knew that this could happen. This shouldn't have come as a surprise.
"Let's see who will replace them, and then this situation can change at any time. I think they would not like to suspend the contract.
"I don't think it will have much of an effect. Already played without them. I don’t notice any problem".
Bulut pleased by Evans progress
Erol Bulut says he's happy with the progress made by Cardiff City youngster Kieron Evans over the last couple of weeks.
The winger produced another impressive outing in the behind-closed-doors friendly with Cambridge United on Friday, and his antics have clearly been noted by the Bluebirds boss.
He said: “I’m satisfied with him and his performance. He’s a quick player, he’s skilful.
"Sometimes he does try to keep the ball too much, so he has to think a little quicker when the ball gets to his feet. But he’s doing well, and I’m satisfied.”
Commenting on the Cambridge clash as a whole, he added: “In the first half we had some more experienced players, so they know how to handle things a little bit better, in terms of keeping the ball and creating options.
“Second half we had some young blood and they tried to play a little bit different, but they also did well. On the small details, we have to work a little harder with the young guys, but we want to see them go far.
“We have to be more clever when we have the ball and have the lead. We can’t allow the opponent to get into these positions to score. We have to work a little bit more.
“We will have many games where we will lead, try and keep the ball and to get the game finished in the end. That was the game today, but the guys are learning quick and I’m happy about that for now.”
