Cardiff City are closing in on a deal to make Sabri Lamouchi their new manager with Bluebirds fans favourite Sol Bamba as his assistant, WalesOnline has learned.
Cardiff have been without a permanent boss since Mark Hudson was relieved of his duties almost two weeks ago following a 1-1 draw with fellow strugglers Wigan Athletic.
The club have had a large number of applicants, however they whittled down a short list of candidates, with Lamouchi, Valerien Ismael and another unnamed manager being actively spoken to.
