Cardiff City are showing a lot of interest in bringing in Bolton striker Gary Madine in the January transfer window. Cardiff have suffered a slump in form over the last few weeks and it is threatening to eliminate their push for promotion. The major reason behind this disappointment over the last few weeks is the injury problems faced by the squad. Manager Neil Warnock has been without Danny Ward after a knee surgery for the forward, while the likes of Kenneth Zohore and others have had several injury problems over the last couple of months.
As a result, there are suggestions that Warnock may look to bring in Madine as the top centre forward at Cardiff. Madine has been a key player for Bolton this season. He has helped the club slowly move away from the bottom places and towards safety. He has been able to come up with nine goals so far this campaign, but the biggest hint of Madine being sold in this January window came when the forward was left out of the game against Huddersfield Town in the FA Cup. Even though Bolton might have given him a place on the bench, being left out of the squad altogether raises suspicions about a potential move.
