Leandro Bacuna is closing in on a move to Cardiff

Leandro Bacuna is set to move from Reading to Cardiff City in a deal which could rise to £3m, according to Sky sources.

The midfielder has been with the Royals since moving from Aston Villa in August 2017 for a deal in the region of £3m.

Bacuna has featured 28 times and scored three goals in the Championship this season, with Reading struggling in the relegation zone.

The 27-year-old has Premier League experience from his time at Villa Park, where he made 85 top-flight appearances, scoring six goals.

Cardiff are targeting at least one Deadline Day signing and have reportedly been in talks with Monaco about signing right-back Almany Toure.
