Gunnarsson linked to City

There is a new rumour splash on the back page of the local paper this morning linking Cardiff City with Coventry's Icelandic international midfielder Aron Gunnarsson the name in the mix.

His present club want to keep and have offered the out of contract player a new deal, but there are a number of offers from other club to think over. The story in the South Wales Echo has been generated from Gunnarsson's agent Jerry de Koning, who said,

"There are many clubs who want to sign Aron and Cardiff City are among the favourites.
"Nothing has been finalised yet, but a deal should be completed within the next 24 to 48 hours. The main factor to be finalised is a compensation payment to Coventry City.
"Cardiff City have a good chance of signing Aron."

If Cardiff were to be interested and were to win his signature, they would have to pay some compensation for the 22-year-old. He is a first team regular at Coventry more or less since he joined the club. Could it be the case of an agent touting is player around to drum up interest? Is time I doubt it the youngest has the ability and still time to develop another case of watch this space and see what happens next.
