Former Swansea City manager Paul Clement has lost his job at Everton in the fall-out from Frank Lampard’s sacking. Clement – who was Swansea manager throughout 2017 – was assistant to Lampard, but has left the club along with the rest of the former England star’s backroom team of Joe Edwards, Chris Jones and Ashley Cole. Everton, who are now searching for their seventh manager in the last seven years, had been the latest port of call for Clement, who was sacked by the Swans five years ago.

Dean Whitehead has admitted crisis club Cardiff City need help from every direction to prevent their season from imploding. Angry fans held a demonstration against owner Vincent Tan before their latest defeat, a 1-0 home loss to Millwall that leaves the Bluebirds just above the Championship relegation zone, but with two clubs beneath them with games in hand. In the space of a few days, Cardiff have been told they can only sign loan players in this transfer window, embarked on a search for their third manager of the season, been revealed by court papers to have tried to insure Emiliano Sala for £20m the day after he was killed, and heard those disgruntled fans rise up and call for the hierarchy to quit.

By Gareth James Dean Whitehead has admitted his stewardship of Cardiff City got off to the worst possible start. The caretaker Bluebirds boss was on the wrong end of a 5-2 hammering by Leeds United in their FA Cup third round replay at Elland Road. Whitehead – installed as interim manager at the crisis club […]

Neil Warnock is the bookies’ favourite to return as the new manager of Cardiff City following the sacking of Mark Hudson. Warnock, 74, has been out of work since leaving Middlesbrough in November 2021 and announced his retirement from management six months later. But that has not stopped Welsh bookmakers DragonBet – and others – from making the former Bluebirds boss their favourite to return to the club he left three years ago.

Cardiff City are hoping a slimmed down version of top scorer Callum Robinson can return to action on Saturday against bottom-of-the-table Wigan to provide a first Championship goal for the club since December 17. Robinson’s four goals this season in the League make him the club’s leading striker, but he was forced to miss last weekend’s epic FA Cup third round draw with Leeds United because of sickness. “There has been quite a lot of sickness going round and Robbo lost 6kgs through his bout of flu and tonsilitis. We have to be mindful of that and we have to protect them,” explained Bluebirds boss Mark Hudson.

It will be business as usual for Cardiff City as they look to use loans and free transfers to bolster their squad in this month’s transfer window. Manager Mark Hudson has confirmed that the lifting of the Football League’s transfer embargo is only partial and the club can only deal in loans and free transfers. As it stands, it will be another two transfer windows before Cardiff can pay fees for players, although they remain in talks over lifting that part of the restriction.

Cardiff City can hit the January sales after the EFL lifted their transfer embargo The Football League acted after the club paid the first installment of the £15 million transfer fee for Emiliano Sala to Nantes. Sala, who died in a plane crash in 2019 while traveling from Nantes to Cardiff during the January transfer window, has been at the centre of a three-year dispute between the two clubs.

By Gareth James Sean Morrison -the totemic former captain of Cardiff City – has announced his departure from the club after more than eight years of service. Morrison sustained a serious knee injury in a win against Barnsley in February 2022 and has not played since. Despite the setback, he has remained with the team […]

Mark Hudson has urged Cardiff City players to “keep the faith” even though he appears unable to steer them away from relegation danger. The 1-0 defeat away to Blackburn Rovers on New Year’s Day means the Bluebirds are now without a win in seven games and remain only two points above the Championship drop zone. Since Hudson took over, he has managed just four victories in 16 matches with a squad that appears ill-equipped to pull clear to mid-table.

By Paul Jones Russell Martin is tired of sloppy performances, as he see his team drop down to 16th in the Championship, following an eight game winless streak. Andy Carroll’s third goal of the season put Paul Ince’s men ahead, and it might have been two within five minutes had Yakou Meite not mindlessly blazed […]

Cardiff City have revealed that Rubin Colwill has taken part in fewer than half of their training sessions this season. The Wales midfielder’s progress has been beset by injuries, even though he made the World Cup squad for Qatar and came on as a substitute in the defeat to England. Colwill has actually managed 12 appearances for Cardiff this season, but 11 of those have been off the bench and his manager Mark Hudson has admitted there are concerns over the durability of the 20-year-old, despite his obvious talent.
