Cardiff City are "willing listeners with open arms" if Gareth Bale decides he wants to play for his hometown club.
Chairman Mehmet Dalman confirmed the Bluebirds' stance with speculation linking Bale and Cardiff refusing to go away despite the obvious financial gulf in what the player is used to be being paid and what the club could afford.
A sensational Bale transfer remains unlikely in reality, but there will be a complete transformation of the Bluebirds squad over the coming weeks with a raft of players to leave at the end of their contracts. Manager Steve Morison has already held talks with new targets ( you can read about them here ), and between 10 and 15 new faces are expected to arrive this summer.
