Russell Slade already looking to summer targets

Cardiff City manager Russell Slade has said that he already has a number of transfer targets prepared for the summer.

The City coach has endured a mixed season in Wales, but has been given assurances by the club's owners that he remains in their plans for next season.

"The parameters will be greater than they were in January and there is still work to be done," said Slade, according to Wales Online.

"We have our targets and the owner and chief executive are aware of those.

"We are working on bringing in players and one or two of those will cost us a little bit of money."

Cardiff currently occupy 13th position in the Championship table, with 52 points from 41 games.
