Cardiff City have reportedly had a £1.75m bid for Craig Bryson accepted.

According to The Express , Cardiff have agreed a fee with Derby County for the transfer.

The report adds the Premier League new boys, who had Bryson on loan last season, have still to be given permission to open talks with the Scotland midfielder.

Bryson joined Cardiff on deadline day last summer – and was a key figure for Neil Warnock’s men as they secured an unlikely promotion to the Premier League.

The 31-year-old made 22 appearances for Cardiff, scoring two goals. He has one year left to run on his Rams contract.

When Bryson’s loan stint was up with Cardiff, speculation grew as to whether he would return to the Welsh capital for the 2018-19 season.

We spoke to Wales Online sports writer Dominic Booth, who covers the Bluebirds, to get his take on the situation in May.

“They need someone to bring more control and creativity to the midfielder and they have plenty of energy in the shape of Joe Ralls,” Booth said when asked if Bryson could stay at Cardiff beyond the summer.

“Warnock may keep Bryson, more as a back-up option, because I think they need a bit more quality, to be honest.”

He added: “There’s definitely a chance (of him signing) because of how much Warnock admires Bryson.

“It will depend on how the Bluebirds’ pursuit of other targets fares over the summer.”
