Mansaray to net Cardiff deal

Mansaray to net Cardiff deal

Published Oct. 22, 2012 9:15 a.m. ET

Cardiff manager Malky Mackay is set to offer a short-term deal to Danish triallist Ibrahim Mansaray as he bids to bolster his Bluebirds squad.

The 19-year-old defensive midfielder, who left Brondby at the end of last season, started training with the Championship high-flyers at the start of October.

And he has impressed Bluebirds boss Mackay to earn a contract until January, which the Welsh club then may decide to extend further.

Sierra Leone-born Mansaray, who can also play in defence, chose to leave Brondby when his contract expired to pursue a career in England.

He was training with non-league Peckham United as he looked for a Football League club before linking up with Cardiff.
