In his search for a star Premier League winger, Cardiff City manager Malky Mackay is looking at Ecuadorian international Jefferson Montero – according to reports in South America.

The 23-year-old, who has made a flying start to the season for Mexican outfit America y Morelia, is said to be being tracked by Premier League rivals Swansea City, Everton and Hull City.

Sources in Ecuador are today saying Montero's agent Diego Herrera has spoken to Bluebirds bosses about a possible move since Mackay missed out on top target Tom Ince.

The Scot has admitted he would like to sign a wideman and was reportedly targeting Real Madrid starlet Denis Cheryshev last week.

The highly rated South American, who has experience in Europe with Villareal, Levante and Real Betis, would likely be and interesting prospect to Mackay after scoring five and creating three in Morelia's four league games so far this season.

Montero has revealed to the Mexican press this week that he's happy at his current club but would not rule out a move to the Premier League this season.
