Cardiff striker Michael Chopra is again linked with the Blues by some of this morning’s tabloids. Town boss Paul Jewell is said to have turned his attention to a £1 million move for the 27-year-old having had his attempts to sign Doncaster’s Billy Sharp rebuffed.

Chopra was one of ex-Town boss Keane’s main targets last season, having played for him at Sunderland, but the club weren’t prepared to pay the Bluebirds' asking price.

The one-time Newcastle trainee, who is contracted to Cardiff until 2012, scored 11 goals in 28 starts and 11 sub appearances during 2010/11 despite suffering one or two injuries.

Whether Chopra, who was first reported to be a Paul Jewell target last week, is the player the Blues boss is set to meet today remains to be seen but it appears unlikely.

TractorRoyNo1 added 18:13 - May 27 until Connor is sold (late August) we will be linked with these 'bargains' and sadly Bullard signing has all the looks of the Frannie Jeffers summer all over again

chepstowblue added 18:32 - May 27 Really wouldnt want him.Every time ive seen Cardiff this season he appears unhinged and on the edge.Personally would much rather Harewood but fear that at the moment he is a little out of our league.
