A lot has been made about incomings for Cardiff City, but their are also players who will be seeking moves ahead of Deadline Day. There are a handful of the current crop of players that would benefit from a move in the last week of this window.
Jesper Daland (25)
This is more of a suggestion as it's an ongoing procedure. If I'm honest, I'm actual in favour of keeping Jesper Daland, but that looks unlikely. Daland is still expected to leave before the deadline, with the 25 year-old being in talks with a club in Europe, whether it's a permanent or loan is yet unknown. The defender has shown glimpses in a Cardiff shirt, but has struggled quite badly with injury.
Jak Alnwick (32)
In a sudden turn of events, Alnwick now finds himself as third choice goalkeeper. After impressive starts from both Nathan Trott and Matt Turner, there looks to be no way back for the 32 year-old. With a year left on his deal, it could be best for both parties if they part companies in the final week of the window. Personal matters could play a part in a potential move, with Alnwick settled in the area and just having had a kid with his partner, so whether that plays a factor remains to be seen.
Luke Pearce (21)
Pearce has proven over pre-season he is too good to be playing U21's football for much longer. The 21 year-old gained experience on loan at Sligo Rovers last season, and another loan would be best suited for the Irish striker, as City look to step up the forwards' development.
Luey Giles (19)
I'm sure most expected Giles to play second choice to Joel Bagan until a left-back was signed, but things haven't played out that way. A loan seems the most suitable choice for Giles this season, an opportunity to go and play week in week out at a competitive level and get some experience, and to come back next season ready to compete for a spot.
Tantatswa Nyakuhwa (19)
This is dependent on whether City add another winger before the Deadline. Nyakuhwa is undoubtedly talented and will be an exciting player for Cardiff City, but if another winger comes in, it's difficult to see where the soon to be 20 year-old will get game time, and these early years are crucial, as proven with players like Joel Colwill, Eli King etc. Therefore, a six month loan or full season, could be useful for Tan Nyakuhwa's development. But, if another winger isn't added, I wouldn't be pushing for the 19 year-old to be loaned out.
