Damn rumours

More transfer rumours surrounding the Bluebirds, Blackburn must have Jay Bothroyd according to Click Lancashire.

The rumours will pitter out and they will have added to the list of possible suitors. Cardiff City has not heard anything from any of the clubs about signing Bothroyd. Jones told the BBC.

"We have had no contact from any club for Jay.

“I’ve heard Juventus, Inter Milan, AC Milan and Fulham all linked with him but we haven’t had one telephone call for any senior player at this football club.

"The only contact we’ve had is for younger players to go out on loan. The speculation does not bother me but all the clubs know our numbers here.

"If I was after a player then we would contact the club and do the proper things. Jay has said he is happy here so we just have to live with the speculation."

On who could be coming in rumour, two new names have been thrown into the transfer ring Liverpool centre-half Danny Wilson and centre-half Winston Reid from West Ham.

The source of the story linking the two centre-half is ‘Goal.com UK’ who are suggesting City boss Dave Jones has missed out on Tottenham’s Jonathan Woodgate and Bolton's Andy O’Brien who sign for Leeds and likely to miss out on Millwall Danny Shittu as the competition for his signature.

Liverpool has recently tried to recall a loaned out player unsuccessfully and with trouble with the defence Anfield boss Roy Hodgson maybe be reluctant to loan out Wilson. Of the two Jones could have better luck with bringing Winston Reid to Cardiff, but is Dave Jones interested.
