Cardiff City in Talks for Transfer Target as Progress Accelerates

Cardiff: Omer Riza has shared that they’re in talks about bringing in Ricky-Jade Jones from Peterborough. The young forward can play on the wing or as a striker, and he’s got a contract until the end of the season. Cardiff is eager to make a deal and bring him to Wales.

The Bluebirds are looking to add some much-needed speed to their squad. Jones is known for his incredible pace, having been clocked at 22.3 mph. He was even linked to Premier League’s Newcastle United over the summer, so he’s definitely a hot prospect.

With 35 goals and 11 assists in 175 appearances for Peterborough, it’s clear he’s got talent. Other clubs are likely eyeing him too, so it’ll be interesting to see if Cardiff can secure him. Riza mentioned that discussions are ongoing but didn’t go into specifics about any deals.

He noted that there are some hurdles to overcome, like whether players want to join Cardiff and if the club can afford them. Riza is optimistic, though, saying they’re looking at several players to boost the team’s pace and creativity.

Even though the transfer window has just started, Riza believes things will start moving after the FA Cup weekend. He’s in constant talks and is waiting for some clubs to finalize their own transfers before they can make their moves. It sounds like things are heating up for Cardiff City!
