Cardiff City have held talks with Bristol City playmaker Kasey Palmer over a move to south Wales but there are fears that the deal could collapse, which will likely impact the Robins transfer activity this summer.
Bristol Live understands discussions between Palmer and the Bluebirds took place last weekend, and there was confidence from all three parties involved that a permanent deal would be struck this week, ending the 25-year-old’s three-spell at Ashton Gate, but negotiations are now at an impasse.
At present, Cardiff are believed to be the only Championship club currently willing to offer Palmer a way out of Bristol and with that route potentially closed, he will be expected to report for pre-season testing next month and then see out the final year of his contract.
