Despite plenty of speculation Cardiff City have confirmed they have not received any enquiries about star defender Bruno Manga.

With just a year now left on his deal with the Bluebirds, the 27-year-old centre-half is already being linked with a move away from the Welsh capital this summer.

Manga is reportedly a target for a clutch of Premier League sides with Bournemouth, Crystal Palace, West Ham and the Bluebirds’ arch-rivals Swansea City all said to be interested in the Gabon international.

Manga’s agent, Yvan Le Mee, said recently: “All I can tell you is that Premier League clubs are interested. With what he showed at Cardiff for two years, it is logical that Bruno is attracting the interest of the world.”

Manga is also reportedly in line for a return to France. Toulouse are said to be interested in signing him and Rennes have reportedly already made contact with the player. Rennes are now managed by Christian Gourcuff, who used to manage Manga at Lorient, the club the defender joined the Bluebirds from in September 2014.

But despite all the speculation, sources at Cardiff insist they have so far received no enquiries at all about Manga.

The Bluebirds are keen to hold onto their better players this summer, but have always had the stance that every player within the club has a price and serious offers will always be listened to.

Last summer West Brom put money on the table to try to but skipper and goalkeeper David Marshall, but Cardiff decided the offer was too low and Marshall stayed in the Welsh capital.

Cardiff paid for €5 million for Manga and will be determined to recoup of much of that fee as possible if the player is to move on this summer.
