According to reports Harry Redknapp looks likely to get his man after outbidding Sunderland boss Gus Poyet who had a £3.75m bid rejected last month.

Midfielder Mutch, who signed from Birmingham City for £1m in 2012, was relegated with Cardiff last season but still but still managed to impress, scoring against Liverpool and Chelsea.

The 22 year old only has one year left on his contract and the Welsh side had hoped to retain his services but look set to lose one of their prize assets.

Cardiff are also fighting to keep hold of fellow midfielder Gary Medel with Inter Milan keen on the Chilean star.

He signed for the Bluebirds last season in an £11m deal and they are not prepared to let him go cheaply despite their relegation from the top flight.

Meanwhile Harry Redknapp and QPR welcome Loic Remy back into the fold after his move to Liverpool fell through.

The wantaway star will join his team mates on their pre-season tour of Ireland in Dublin tomorrow and Redknapp will need to address his future soon as he prepares his team for the coming season.
